MNB Pherolure consists of macadamia nut borer pheromone impregnated in a rubber septum.
This product is intended for use in agricultural crops for the monitoring of male macadamia nut borer moths (Thaumatotibia batrachopa) in agricultural crops.
Active Ingredient: Macadamia nut borer pheromone: (Z)-8-dodecenyl acetate.
Key Benefits:
Accurate Monitoring: The lure attracts male MNB moths into traps, allowing farmers to monitor population peaks, determine economic thresholds, and time pesticide applications accurately.
Species-Specific Targeting: PheroLure® is designed to attract only the target species (Macadamia Nut Borer), ensuring that beneficial insects and natural predators in the orchard are not harmed.
Reduced Insecticide Usage: By providing data-driven insights, it reduces the need for blanket spraying, supporting Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategies.
Mating Disruption (X-Mate®): MNB pheromones are used to release synthetic scents that confuse male moths, preventing them from locating females, reducing overall infestation rates.
