Monitoring Plum Fruit Moth with Pheromone Technology

The Cydia funebrana pheromone capsule is a key tool for integrated pest management (IPM) in plum orchards. By attracting male moths, it allows precise monitoring of their activity and helps prevent damage to fruit.

This capsule is designed for easy installation in standard traps, ensuring optimal diffusion of the pheromone to lure insects effectively.

How to Identify Cydia funebrana Activity

Plum fruit moth (Cydia funebrana) is a major pest affecting plum trees. Its presence can be detected through the capture of male moths in traps equipped with the pheromone capsule.

Symptoms of infestation include small holes in the fruit, webbing, and premature fruit drop. Early detection with the capsule ensures timely intervention.

  • Check traps weekly for captured moths.
  • Monitor fruit for signs of damage (holes, webbing).

Biological Cycle of Cydia funebrana

Cydia funebrana undergoes 2 to 3 generations per year in temperate climates, with peak activity typically occurring between May and July. The moth lays eggs on plum fruits, and larvae bore into the fruit, causing economic losses.

The pheromone capsule disrupts mating by attracting males away from females, reducing egg-laying and larval infestation.

Integrated Pest Management for Plum Fruit Moth

The pheromone capsule is a non-toxic, chemical-free solution for monitoring and managing Cydia funebrana. It complements biological control methods like predatory insects or pheromone-based mating disruption.

For severe infestations, combine with biological pesticides (e.g., Bacillus thuringiensis) or organic sprays (e.g., neem oil) as part of a holistic approach.
