“Monitoring Traps are the first step in a series of steps whose goal is to provide a system of information that allows the grower to manage insect problems with a minimum of input. There are many types of traps available and the most commonly used types can be used with or without pheromone lures. Monitoring traps used with pheromone lures will attract and collect members of a specific insect species. Scentry Traps are useful for determining the presence or absence of a pest, monitoring changes in pest populations, or determining the emergence patterns of adult insects as an aid in planning control measures. Scentry Pheromone Lures mimic the potent odor produced by an insect to attract, mate, and reproduce with members of the same species.The kit contains: 12 Lures, 4 Wing Trap plastic tops, 12 sticker-coated trap bottoms, 4 wire hangers, 2 insect removal sticks, 4 spacers, 1 assembly instructions, 1 Monitoring Guide.”
