Roller traps are designed specifically to attract the blueberry gall midge(Dasineura oxycoccana) and thrips species as both are important pests in blueberry crops. The traps incorporate an encapsulated formulation of the female sex pheromone of blueberry gall midge into the glue layer of the trap. The pheromone is highly attractive and specific, attracting males to the trap. The addition of a blue pattern on the white roller traps increase the rolls attraction to thrips, which are attracted to both white and blue and stick to its adhesive surface. Detecting invasions early and precision monitoring of populations are crucial parts of integrated pest management (IPM) programmes.
Advantages:
- the trap has a special pattern that makes it more effective at attracting target insects;
- can be used for winding garden trees;
- period of work up to 3-4 months;
- adhesive acts even in a humid environment and at high temperatures;
- does not contain insecticides and does not emit harmful fumes;
- resistance to UV radiation.
Precautions: All components are environmentally friendly. Hygienic regulation in environmental objects and grown products is not required.
