Fruit Fly Lure
Fruit Fly Lure is an autolysed protein highly attractive to Queensland and Mediterranean fruit flies. The protein odours attract both male and female flies, but particularly immature females searching for protein food so they can develop their eggs. It is mixed with an insecticide and spot sprayed onto the foliage of fruit trees, thereby minimising the disruptive effects of conventional cover sprays. Fruit Fly Lure is applied as an attractant in small quantities and is highly effective in controlling fruit fly in avocados, citrus and passionfruit. Bait spraying in other crops which are highly susceptible to fruit fly (e.g. stone fruit and guavas) may need to be performed in conjunction with cover sprays. Fruit Fly Lure does not contain salt and is therefore less likely to cause leaf and fruit burn than the earlier salt-based hydrolysed protein. However, fruit burn may still occur in some more sensitive crops, especially mangoes. The absence of salt improves the attractiveness of Fruit Fly Lure when compared to salt based formulations. Fruit Fly Lure may be used in conjunction with Fruit Fly Traps and MAT cups For more information on fruit fly control click here.
