Fruit fly wick (= MAT cup) Dan Papacek

Q Fly Wick

Our Fruit Fly Wicks are supplied impregnated with a sex attractant (cue lure) and an insecticide (Maldison). They are used to replace expired wicks in our Fruit Fly Traps. Wicks will keep for long periods in the sealed plastic packet. Once opened they are effective for three months.

Replace wicks in Fruit Fly Traps every three months.

Bugs for Bugs is continually improving the design and performance of our products. Our unique plastic housing is designed to make the Q Fly Wick totally flexible for use in a trap or as part of an area wide managment program. The wick is protected from the elements for maximum longevity and performance. Our latest re-design allows improved airflow and volatilisation of the pheromone from the wick while improving fruit fly access to the toxicant.

MAT cups

Fruit fly wicks can also be placed individually (without the trap) at densities of up to 20 per hectare to reduce male fly numbers as part of an area wide management strategy. When used in this fashion they are referred to as MAT cups (MAT=Male Annihilation Technique). Contact us for further details.
