Puffer® CM-OFM Pro

CheckMate OFM-F Flowable

Puffer® CM-OFM Pro for Oriental Fruit Moth & Codling Moth

Fast to deploy aerosol pheromone solution for Oriental fruit moth control

CheckMate® Puffer® CM-OFM Pro is Suterra’s optimized aerosol release formulation that provides protection against both codling moth (CM) and Oriental fruit moth (OFM) in one product. It can be used in apples, pears and other crops where both CM and OFM are pests.

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 and OFM sex pheromone throughout the orchard, reducing adult males’ ability to find females.

Checkmate® Puffer® CM-OFM Pro is compatible with all Integrated Pest Management (IPM) tools.

OFM-F Flowable for Oriental Fruit Moth

The first sprayable pheromone for Oriental fruit moth control

CheckMate® OFM-F is Suterra’s pioneering sprayable pheromone release formulation for Oriental fruit moth (OFM) in stone and pome fruit crops.

An easy-to-deploy, flexible option for OFM control, CheckMate® OFM-F fits into growers’ existing integrated pest management (IPM) programs. It is tankmixable with common agrochemicals and works well with nearly any water volume. This product releases the OFM sex pheromone throughout the orchard, reducing adult males’ ability to find females. This disrupts the mating cycle and suppresses pest populations.

CheckMate® OFM-F gives growers the flexibility to spray few or many times each season depending on the timing and pressure of OFM in their orchards.

Why Growers Choose CheckMate® OFM-F Flowable

• Flexible way to reduce OFM damage

• Reduce pest populations

• Fights development of insecticide resistance

• Easy-to-deploy liquid formulation

• Tank-mixable with common agrochemicals

• Does not harm beneficial insects

• Low worker exposure

• Minimal re-entry and pre-harvest interval

Damage Reduction

The addition of CheckMate® OFM-F Flowable into a comprehensive IPM program cuts Oriental fruit moth damage by 50% or more.

Trap Inhibition

CheckMate® OFM-F Flowable hinders the ability of males to find pheromone traps as compared to areas treated with grower standard practices.

Application Overview

• Shake well before use

• Do not used peristaltic (roller) or gear pumps

• Use 50-mesh screens or coarser
