General Instructions:

This product may be used as a monitoring tool in conjunction with routine spray programmes. It may also be used to detect the onset of the fruit fly season and to reduce the local fruit fly pressure. The product may also be integrated into fruit fly control programmes on properties committed to pesticide-free farming techniques. This product will attract and kill male flies when used as directed in a "wet" trap but is not designed to be effective when applied to a cotton wick as no insecticide is present. (Flies will be attracted but not killed and are likely to escape from the trap).
