Monitoring and selective pest control are fundamental pillars of integrated protection and sustainable agriculture. Traps, attractants and pheromones are essential tools in this process, allowing early detection of the presence of insects, quantification of populations, guidance of intervention decisions and, in some cases, direct reduction of pest pressure through mass trapping.

These devices and substances act in a highly specific way, using visual, olfactory or behavioural stimuli that exploit the natural orientation mechanisms of insects. Their use helps to reduce dependence on conventional insecticides, protect beneficial fauna and reduce the environmental impact of agricultural practices, being compatible with organic farming, integrated production and conventional systems seeking greater sustainability.

BIOSANI's range integrates robust and technically validated solutions, suitable for various crops and key pests, allowing the farmer to implement rigorous and effective monitoring strategies, aligned with European regulatory requirements and with the principles of integrated pest management (IPM).

The page is organised into three main categories, each with a distinct role within the monitoring and control strategy.

1. Traps

Traps are physical devices designed to capture insects or monitor their presence. They can be based on visual stimuli (colour, shape), food attractants or pheromones.

Main functions

  • Monitoring of specific pests
  • Mass trapping in certain crops
  • Assessment of population levels
  • Support for decision-making (timing of intervention, need for treatment)

Most common types

  • Delta traps with adhesive plates
  • Chromatic traps (yellow, blue) for whitefly, thrips, aphids
  • Water traps for Tuta
  • Specific traps for fruit fly, moths, mosquitoes, among others

These traps are often used together with pheromones or attractants, increasing the selectivity and effectiveness of the capture.

2. Attractants

Attractants are substances that increase the capture capacity of traps, using food, volatile or specific stimuli for certain groups of insects.

Main functions

  • Increase the attractiveness of traps
  • Direct the capture towards target species
  • Improve early detection
  • Complement mass trapping strategies

Types of attractants

  • Food attractants for flies
  • Protein attractants
  • Universal or specific lures
  • Natural volatile substances

Attractants are essential for pests where the response to pheromones is limited or when the aim is to capture both sexes.

3. Pheromones

Pheromones are chemical compounds that mimic the natural signals used by insects for communication, especially sexual pheromones. They are highly selective and specific to each species.

Main functions

  • Monitoring of pest populations
  • Early detection of flights and population peaks
  • Support for treatment decisions
  • Mass trapping when combined with appropriate traps

Characteristics

  • High specificity
  • Compatibility with organic farming
  • Absence of impact on beneficial fauna
  • Strategic importance in integrated pest management

Pheromones are often used together with delta or funnel traps, allowing rigorous monitoring of population dynamics.
