How to Install
· (Figure 1) In order to disturb mating and effectively prevent breeding of pests, the product should be installed in a completely different way compared to that of the monitoring trap.
· (Figure 2) The mating disruption should be installed evenly throughout the field as much as possible so that the pheromone components can be applied to the entire field.
· (Figure 2) Even if the trees in the orchard are young or there is some empty space in the field, you need to install the mating disruption densely so that the pheromone can act throughout the field and achieve the desired effects.
