The effect of the food moth pheromone catcher is based on the active substance of the pheromone, contained in the adhesive composition on the strip and reliably luring the males of the pests. The substance is specifically and solely effective on males of food moths of the genera Ephestia elutella, Ephestia kuehniella, Ephestia cautella and Plodia interpunctella. The food moth pheromone catcher can be used in various storage places of vegetable food such as wheat and wheat products, oleiferous plants, nuts, almonds, raisins, figs, dates, pulses, dried vegetables, dried fruits, dried mushrooms, cocoa beans and chocolate products, healing plants, tobacco, and so on. The adhesive pheromone strips detect the moths and, more importantly, lure and catch the males of these intruders in our households. The catch of the males stops their reproduction, protecting thus food from their larvae. To use the catcher, remove the adhesive strip and hang the strip on the hook wherever the moths are likely to be found. Use best close to walls or in corners, in places where foodstuffs are stored (gaps between bags), close to foodstuffs in bulk, or where waste is stored. Do not use in places of much air stream. In non-heated rooms, use best between April and October when air temperature reaches 12° to 15°C. In heated places, the catcher can be used any time. The strips are usually exchangd after 6 weeks. Longer periods are possible, the adhesiveness being maintained, yet the lure is decreasing.The traps are usually exchanged after 6 weeks. Longer periods are possible, the adhesiveness being main-tainted, yet the lure is decreasing gradually.
