PCI Coco Bucket Trap is a durable and eco-friendly pheromone-based trap designed for controlling major coconut pests like Red Palm Weevil and Rhinoceros Beetle. It works by attracting insects using a pheromone lure and trapping them inside the bucket, helping farmers monitor pest activity and reduce their population effectively. The trap features a strong, collapsible design that is easy to carry, install, and reuse for multiple seasons. Made from high-quality plastic, it is resistant to heat, rain, and harsh field conditions, ensuring long-lasting performance. Its practical bucket structure allows easy entry of pests while preventing escape, improving trapping efficiency. As an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) tool, it reduces the need for chemical pesticides and supports sustainable and organic farming practices, making it a cost-effective solution for protecting coconut and palm crops.
