CIDETRAK CMDA + LR DUAL MESO is a high performance mating disruption dispenser for codling moth and leafroller control that significantly reduces trap capture, “mating” and damage with a proper management program!

 

Codling moth, Cydia pomonella, or CM primarily attacks apples, but can also affect pears, walnuts, plums and quince. Codling moth larvae mainly damage fruit with deep entries and stings. Specifically, larvae penetrate the fruit and tunnel to the core. Apple Pandemis, Pandemis pyrusana, attacks apples. Obliquebanded Leafroller, Choristoneura rosaceana, or OBLR primarily attacks apples, pears, and stone fruit. However, it also infests a broad range of hosts including walnuts, filberts, pistachios, oaks, berries, grapes, hops, and azaleas.

 

The CIDETRAK CMDA + LR DUAL MESO mating disruption Dispenser A contains a unique combination of codling moth pheromone AND a male AND female behavior modifying kairomone called DA (pear ester). The DA kairomone enhances the effect of the codling moth pheromone on male mating disruption. Additionally, DA initiates female mating disruption through behavior changes in the female resulting in oviposition disruption, less mating, higher virginity, and lower damage. Dispenser B contains a potent leafroller pheromone which is to be added to the same patented rotating-hanging device. The addition of leafroller pheromone provides “2-for-1” performance you cannot beat for both codling moth and leafroller control. Finally, CIDETRAK CMDA + LR DUAL MESO is the only product in the world that disrupts the mating of male and female codling moth delivering a significant “one-two” punch! 

 

CIDETRAK CMDA + LR DUAL MESO delivers exceptional full-season codling moth and leafroller control through post-harvest. Accordingly, it achieves outstanding results with remarkably low dispenser rates. Furthermore, it offers the widest A.I. rate range for apples, pears, and stone fruit. Most importantly, the dramatic reduction of dispenser rate and increased performance results in less labor, less insecticide and less damage. Moreover, a ready-to-use carrier package and patented rotating-hanging device make applications easier. Finally, the low dispenser rate (32/AC or 80/HA), provides a labor and cost-efficient option.

 

Overall, CIDETRAK CMDA + LR DUAL MESO is a crucial tool in an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategy for codling moth and leafrollers.
