Farm Fruit Lure(Fruit Fly)

Farm Fruit Lure – Targeted Solution for Fruit Fly Monitoring & Control

Farm Fruit Lure is a highly efficient pheromone-based attractant specifically developed to monitor and control fruit fly populations in fruit crops like mango, guava, papaya, sapota, citrus, and banana. When used with compatible traps such as IPM Trap or Maxplus Trap, it offers an eco-friendly, non-toxic, and species-specific pest management strategy that reduces chemical pesticide usage and ensures high-quality produce suitable for export.

Key Characteristics

Active Ingredient: Fruit Fly Attractant (Pheromone – 99% purity)
Dispenser Type: Wooden Block
Field Life: Up to 60 days (depending on weather conditions)
Packaging: Single unit in anti-smell release pouch
Shelf Life: 2 years (unopened in original packaging)
Mode of Action: Male Annihilation Technique (MAT); mass trapping system that targets fruit fly males and disrupts mating cycles

How Farm Fruit Lure Works

Farm Fruit Lure operates on the male annihilation technique by attracting male fruit flies with a powerful pheromone. Once trapped, it prevents reproduction, thereby reducing the next generation of pests.

• Lure attracts male fruit flies seeking to mate.

• Captured males reduce mating success, resulting in fewer eggs laid.

• Population decline occurs with repeated deployment and monitoring.

This method provides proactive pest management without relying on repeated pesticide sprays.

Usage Recommendations for Farm Fruit Lure

Crops Targeted

• Mango

• Guava

• Papaya

• Sapota

• Citrus

• Banana

Application Method

• Insert the wooden block lure into an IPM Trap or Maxplus Trap.

• Hang traps in the crop canopy at the early fruiting stage.

• Maintain appropriate spacing across the field for effective coverage.

Recommended Dosage

• 10 traps per acre for optimal fruit fly monitoring and mass trapping.

• Replace lure every 60 days or earlier based on weather and pest pressure.

Best Practices for Using Farm Fruit Lure

• Deploy traps before peak fruit fly activity (pre-flowering to early fruit set).

• Position traps evenly throughout the field for consistent monitoring.

• Combine with other IPM techniques for best results.

• Keep a monitoring log to assess pest pressure and take timely action.

• Avoid placement near chemical pesticide applications.

Safety Precautions

• Do not open the pouch until ready to use.

• Wash hands thoroughly after handling.

• Store unused lures in a cool, dry place away from sunlight.

• Keep out of reach of children and pets.

• Dispose of used lures and traps responsibly.
