The EOSTRAP® COSMOPOLITES DRY CAPTURE TRAP is used together with pheromones for the detection and mass trapping of the banana weevil: Cosmopolites sordidus.
It is made of plastic polymer which is odourless when it is heat by the sun. Also, this trap is resistant to ultraviolet rays. On average, it lasts 6 or 7 years in normal field conditions. The trap consists of three parts that can be assembled easily: a base, a lid and a special hanger for the pheromone diffuser, ECONEX COSMOPOLITES SORDIDUS 90 DAYS.
The base of the trap has 4 holes in its upper part. Also, the inside of the trap is treated with a slippery film preventing the weevil from escaping. In addition, the base has a drainage system that avoids accumulation of water.
The trap should be placed half-buried up to the entry holes. In this way, Cosmopolites sordidus enters the trap and it remains retain. The trap does not need any maintenance work during the lifetime of the diffusers. However, it is recommended checking the captures regularly.
The trap includes an EOSTRAP® CAMISA SUELO, a hollow cylinder of 12.5 cm high and 11.5 cm in diameter. It facilitates the placement of the trap on the ground, monitoring and maintenance work.
The traps should be covered with remains of leaves from the banana trees because in this way the capture of the weevil is optimised. It is necessary to use a cane to point at the placed traps in order to be able to find them and carry out maintenance work in the field.
