Leveraging our cutting-edge isomer-specific pheromone synthesis platform, Barrix Catch Fruit Fly Lure contains a premium-quality 4-Allyl Veratrol pheromone. Designed as a potent sex pheromone, it effectively attracts Bactrocera dorsalis and its 83 subspecies, making it a formidable tool in pest control in every fruit and citrous crops.
Our unique impregnation method utilizes capillary impregnation technology in a sophisticated manner, which amplifies the lure’s porosity and entraps a greater volume of pheromone in the voids created. This advanced process allows for a slow, sustained, and longer-lasting release of the pheromone, significantly enhancing its field performance.
Upon deployment, our Barrix Catch Fruit Fly Lure is strategically engineered to release a significant initial dose of pheromone, creating a strong initial attraction through a ‘flash evaporation’. After this immediate impact, the lure continues to steadily emit pheromones, maintaining its efficiency over an impressive span of 90 days. Rely on Barrix Catch Fruit Fly Lure for an effective, enduring, and efficient solution to your pest control needs.

Technologies used:
Introducing Barrix Agro Sciences’ Cutting-Edge Technologies:
1. MAT – Technology
2. Pheromone Impregnation Technology
MAT (Male Annihilation Technique) employs Allyl Veratrol, a sex pheromone, to lure, trap, and annihilate male flies, offering an efficient pest control solution.
Our capillary impregnation method loads a base material with Allyl Veratrol molecules. This results in a dual-action release: an initial surface ‘flash’ followed by a steady, long-term emission from deeper layers, enhancing the lure’s duration and effectiveness.
Recommendation :
Mini Trap Shall be used for the field size less than half acre.
Field Size | For Monitoring | For Control | For Mass Trapping |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 guntas / 12.5 cents | 1 Trap | 2 Traps | > 3 Traps |
| 10 guntas / 25 cents | 2 Traps | 3 Traps | > 4 Traps |
| 15 guntas / 37.5 cents | 3 Traps | 4 Traps | > 5 Traps |
Usage Guidelines :
First install one trap per acre for monitoring, depending upon the fly catches, increase number of traps as per above table for mass trapping. Usage discretion lies with the farmers.

Place the hanger through the hole, present in the trap cap.
Lock the hanger by twist and press.
Take the lure from the pack, place it in the “C” curve, fix by rotating
Twist the hanger sideways and fix to the branches of tree or any appropriate place.
- Hang the trap above 3-5 ft height from the ground level preferably under the shade and firmly fix the Trap.
- In case of prolonged harvest, replace the old lure after 45 days with a “NEW LURE”.
- When the trap is full of flies, remove the flies, bury 1ft below the ground or burn.
- Egg-Laying Marks: Female flies pierce the skin of the fruit to lay their eggs. These marks may be visible as punctures or depressions on the fruit surface.
- Premature Fruit Drop: Infested fruits often drop prematurely from the plant. This is a common symptom of Bactrocera dorsalis infestation and can result in significant crop losses.
- Discoloration of Fruit: The feeding activity of the larvae inside the fruit often leads to discoloration. This is usually a sign of internal damage and decay.
- Maggot Presence: One of the most noticeable signs is the presence of the larvae, or maggots, themselves. When cut open, infested fruits will typically reveal these larvae feeding on the flesh of the fruit.
- Decay and Rotting of Fruit: As the larvae continue to feed on the fruit, they create conditions favorable to decay, leading to a rotten fruit.
- Oozing Fluids: In some cases, you may notice fluids or sap oozing from the fruit, which can be a sign of internal feeding damage.
- Hollowed Fruit: The inside of the fruit may become hollow as the larvae consume the flesh, leaving an empty shell behind.
- Secondary Infections: The wounds made by the females when laying eggs or by the larvae while feeding can provide entry points for other pathogens, leading to secondary infections. These can present as additional discoloration, rot, or the presence of molds or other pests.
- Fruit Deformity: Depending on the stage of fruit development when infestation occurs, the feeding of Bactrocera dorsalis larvae may cause deformities in the shape and size of the fruit.
-
Reduced Crop Yield: A notable symptom of Bactrocera dorsalis infestation is an overall reduction in crop yield, as many of the fruits may become infested and therefore unmarketable.
