Tomato Leafminer (Tuta absoluta) is an invasive pest of tomato crop. Its primary host is tomato, but other crops from the Solanaceae family such as potato, brinjal and common bean are also hosts. It has a high reproduction potential. Each female may lay up to 300 creamy-coloured eggs and 10-12 generations can be produced each year. In tomatoes, it can attack at any stage of crop life and causes 100% crop destruction, although the larvae prefer apical buds, tender new leaflets, flowers, and green fruits. Thereafter, this pest has become a major concern in tomato crops and also a threat to other crops of the Solanaceae family.

We have developed ‘Pheromone Tablet Technology’ for Tuta absoluta. It is IPM (integrated pest management) based technology; ensures the minimal use of chemical pesticides and effective control of Tuta absoluta pest. It is safe, effective and environmental friendly. It does not leave the toxic residues on leaves and fruits of tomato crop.

Key Features:

  • Specific IPM method to catch Tuta absoluta.
  • High-quality marketable tomato fruits are produced and there will be a significant increase in the fruit yield.
  • Fixing Pheromone Tablet with delta trap is cheaper and specific means of insect pest control than spraying insecticidal sprays at weekly intervals.
  • Mass trapping of male Tuta absoluta reduces its population and there are less changes of generating more number of Tuta absoluta
  • Delta Traps with Pheromone Tablet provide adequate control of Tuta absoluta for a longer period as compared to insecticide spray.
  • Traps can be easily fit and long-lasting
  • How to use lures and Traps?
    • Fold the delta trap properly, to make triangular shape.
    • Put tablet lure on the center of the delta trap surface.
    • Using metal wire or thread hang the delta trap containing pheromone tablet at the crop height, just above the canopy.
    • Use 8-12 traps per acre.
    • Replace the tablet lure traps after 30 to 40 or when the catch is reduced significantly or there is no catch.
    • Replace the delta trap when the surface gets covered with the trapped Tuta absoluta.
