Koppert Oriental Pherodis is a species-specific pheromone lure designed for monitoring and mass trapping of Oriental fruit fly (Bactrocera dorsalis) in fruit and vegetable crops. The lure releases a synthetic attractant that draws male fruit flies into traps, helping reduce mating and pest population. It is widely used in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs for early pest detection and minimizing crop damage.

The lure is packed in a trilaminate pouch for better stability and sustained pheromone release under field conditions. It provides effective field performance for up to 6 weeks when used with suitable traps like delta traps or Bactosan traps.
