Puffer® CM-O Pro for Codling Moth

Optimized aerosol pheromone solution for codling moth control

CheckMate® Puffer® CM-O Pro is Suterra’s optimized aerosol release formulation for codling moth (CM) mating disruption in apples, pears, walnuts and other crops where CM is a pest.

This proprietary formulation results in enhanced aerosolization of the pheromone creating a spray that better penetrates targeted areas of the canopy. The fast-to-deploy product releases a precise, consistent amount of CM sex pheromone throughout the orchard, reducing adult males’ ability to find females. This disrupts the mating cycle and suppresses pest populations.

CheckMate® Puffer® CM-O Pro is compatible with all integrated pest management (IPM) tools. The product is also suitable for organic production.
