This pheromone is specifically designed to target the agave weevil and protect plants such as agaves, yuccas, fucraea, dracaena, polianthes, and dasylirion. It is effective for these sensitive species.

The agave weevil pheromone offers effective release for three months, as indicated by official sources. This ensures prolonged protection against adult pests.

In case of severe infestation or presence of larvae, it is recommended to use SC nematodes in combination with the pheromone. This allows treatment of both adults and larvae in the soil or plant tissues.

Regularly check the trap to observe captured weevils. If you capture no insects after several weeks, ensure the diffuser is properly placed and environmental conditions are favorable.
