III International Conference on Pheromones, Lure, Traps and Biological Control: Tools for Integrated Protection.

The new demands regarding the quality of food and the largest movement of species of fruit flies around the world because of the fruit trade have made it necessary to improved pest control strategies in fruit, citrus and vine crops. At the beginning of the 21st century, Bioiberica developed a new system of liquid attractant (Cera Trap®) of great specificity and high efficacy for use not only in monitoring but also in mass trapping. This new line of biological attractants free of pesticides ...

CeraTrap: la estrategia para el control bioracional de la mosca de la fruta en el cultivo del mango

Uno de los principales problemas fitosanitarios del cultivo del mango es la mosca de la fruta. La mosca más característica que afecta al mango es la Anastrepha obliqua. En zones enfocadas a la exportación se están encontrando cada vez más con mayores restricciones a la hora de poder utilizar sustancias químicas por la problemática de los residuos. Desde hace muchos años se monitorean las parcelas con trampas y atrayentes. Recientemente está emergiendo la tecnología del trampeo masi...

Effectiveness evaluation of two attractants, Cera Trap® and Tripack®, for the mass trapping of Ceratitis capitata (Diptera: Tephritidae) in citrus orchards in different regions of Tunisia.

Damages of C. capitata in Tunisia may cause losses of about 1.06 millions Dollars (US) per year on Citrus. By this factor, mass trapping is being evaluated for an effective control of this pest in citrus. The trials were conducted during 2 years (2010, 2011) with two types of Mediterranean fruit fly mass trapping systems Cera Trap® and Tripack® in citrus orchards in three different geographical regions of Tunisia. The Cera Trap® system showed a similar or even a higher effectiveness than ...
