Mode of action
The Deltatrap needs to be used in combination with Pherodis pheromone dispensers. The dispensers release a species-specific sex pheromone which lures the males of the particular pest into the trap. Once in the trap they get stuck in the glue and are easy to detect, count and identify. Trapping males also aids in reducing the number of eggs laid by females as they fail to mate.

Preparation
- Fold the trap into a triangle

Application
- Hang the traps approximately 10 cm above the crop in a location where they can easily be inspected (e.g. along the centre aisle of the greenhouse)

- Replace the sticky insert when largely covered by insects and/or debris
