Koppert Melon Pherodis is a premium-quality species-specific pheromone lure specially developed for effective monitoring and management of fruit fly pests in cucurbit crops. It mimics the natural scent released by female insects, attracting male fruit flies into traps and interrupting their mating cycle. This results in a gradual reduction of pest population and helps protect crops from severe infestation.

Manufactured with advanced slow-release technology, the lure ensures consistent pheromone emission over a longer duration, providing reliable field performance even under varying climatic conditions. It is widely recommended as part of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) practices to minimize chemical pesticide use and promote sustainable agriculture.

Targeted pests : Fruit flies (Bactrocera species)
