Ueber Olive Worm Pheromone

Pack of 2 pheromone capsules

• The adult insect is a fly. The fertilized female lays eggs just under the skin of the fruit. The emerging larva feeds and develops, causing very serious damage: gnawed pulp, rot, fruit drop
• Treatment with pheromones is a 100% ecological solution to eliminate this harmful insect
• The principle is to mimic the volatile substances emitted by female insects (female pheromone) in order to play a role of recognition and sexual attraction on males
• These are attracted, trapped, and eliminated. This prevents mating, reproduction, and therefore egg laying. Pheromones are used with a trap

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Place the traps when the olives have reached about 8 mm and leave them until harvest.
Use 1 trap per tree, facing north, at the beginning of the season, then up to 4 traps per tree by late August to early September
