Impact black glue board 40 cm x 25 cm

Manufacturer: Russell IPM

Black Impact Boards are used for monitoring the South American tomato moth, Tuta absoluta. Black traps were found to be more attractive than other colours tested. For mass trapping use one trap per 100m² and combine the traps with pheromone lures. Alternatively use our wet glue boards or Optiroll Tuta/Tuta rolls, which are infused with Tuta absoluta sex pheromone.

Monitor weekly from the start of the crop cycle by placing one trap per 500m², with some traps near to points of entry into greenhouses. Suspend the trap vertically in the crop, 15-20cm above ground in young crops or up to 50cm above ground level in mature crops. Replace after 6 to 8 weeks or sooner if covered in insects.

Advantages:

• Period of work up to 3-4 months;
• The adhesive acts even in a humid environment and at high temperatures;
• The pattern on the trap allows more accurate monitoring of pest population dynamics;
• Does not contain insecticides and does not emit harmful fumes;
• UV resistant.

Precautions: All components are environmentally friendly. Hygienic regulation in environmental objects and grown products is not required.
