Traps & Lures

Monitoring is a key aspect of a successful Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategy. Trap capture data provides an understanding of flight timing, pest prevalence, and hot spots; allowing growers to apply control products with precision. Suterra offers a wide range of traps and lures to be used for these diagnostic purposes.

Suterra integrates our experience as a growerowned company throughout our world-class product offerings, resulting in products that meet grower needs. We’ve developed products that can withstand the demands of the environment and tough agricultural practices.

Choose Suterra’s top-quality traps and lures to successfully implement this crucial aspect of your IPM strategy.

Traps

Traps that can withstand the challenges of harsh agricultural climates are a fundamental component of a successful monitoring program.

As a grower-owned company, Suterra has integrated our own experience as well as customer feedback into the design of our traps. Suterra traps can withstand the elements and are purpose built for agriculture.

With a focus on quality, Suterra provides trusted monitoring materials built to help growers gather reliable results and make informed decisions.

Lures

A successful IPM program utilizes monitoring as an important diagnostic and timing tool. Suterra lures are an essential aspect of creating an accurate and reliable monitoring program.

The BioLure®, Suterra’s exclusive line of lures, was developed in-house taking real world applications into account. The BioLure® uses Suterra’s proprietary passive release technology ensuring long lasting lure attractiveness. Adhesive backing allows the BioLure® to easily adhere to the side wall or roof of the trap. Thanks to the unique ability to position the lure, it does not interfere with routine trap servicing. The lack of interference reduces the risk of cross contamination generating more reliable and accurate captures. The BioLure® is not activated until the user removes the front peel-off cover. This feature eliminates contact with the active substrate during deployment.

Suterra septa lures integrate Suterra’s unparalleled focus on quality with a tried and true lure design. Each septa lure is individually sealed for freshness. This traditional lure design is easy to use and a reliable component of a grower’s monitoring program.

Mating Disruption

As the global leader in pheromone pest control products, Suterra has developed a range of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) solutions. Leveraging 30 years of experience we provide growers with multiple options including proprietary aerosol emitters, sprayable formulations, and passive dispensers.

All products have been developed in close partnerships with growers and pest control specialists. Each pest-specific mating disruption product is only offered in the deployment option best suited for that pest behavior.

Our state-of-the-art facility in Bend, Oregon integrates all aspects of our business under one roof: research and development, large-scale pheromone synthesis, product engineering and manufacturing. These capabilities allow us to fulfill our commitment to quality.

Mating Disruption

Pests can pose many challenges to hard-working growers. They not only damage the crop, reducing yield, but pests can carry viruses and diseases that can cause long-term adverse impacts. Suterra’s products utilize the pests’ natural pheromones to disrupt their ability to find mates and reproduce. Suterra mating disruption products not only control but do it in a safe way for workers and beneficial insects.
