The objective of the trail was to evaluate the effectiveness of food attractants in the capture of adults of Anastrepha fraterculus on apple trees in Brazil. In all orchards evaluated the total fruit flies captured was greater in the traps baited with CeraTrap®, followed by Torula, BioAnastrepha® and red grape juice. The attractant of CeraTrap® is more effective in the period of pre and fruit harvest.

The South American fruit fly Anastrepha fraterculus (Wied., 1830) (Diptera: Tephritidae) is one of the main species of insect pests that cause damage to the fruit trees in the southern region of Brazil. CeraTrap ® has been responsible for 50.5% of A. fraterculus captured in the experiment, being more effective than the other attractants evaluated.

Silicon is absorbed as monosilicic acid and it is accumulated as amorphous hydrated silica ((SiO2)x.nH2O) in the plant body, thus limitation of its soluble forms difficult assimilation by plants. Silica deposition is one of the important characteristics of the family Poaceae (gramineae), among others. In this family of high agronomic importance its role has been widely studied: it is involved in the mechanical stability of tissues, protection against fungi, insects and herbivores, resistance...

Mass trapping proved to be useful technique for the suppression of fruit fly populations in urban areas of the Province of San Juan. The trials carried out in the target area suggest that liquid retention system based on protein solution is convenient not only because of its trapping performance, but also for its reduced toxicity, relatively high persistence of the attractiveness, and low maintenance.

Developing improved strategies for managing Drosophila suzukii (spotted wing drosophila SWD) will be necessary to reduce reliance on chemical pesticides and minimize the damage caused by this recently introduced pest. Given the limitations in insecticide active ingredients and the need for integrated management of pests, the R&D Department of Bioiberica has developed Suzukii Trap®, a specific food attractant for monitoring and mass trapping D.suzukii. During 2013, several trials were pe...
