Insect trap CROSSTRAP® TA196

for crops

The CROSSTRAP® XYLOFAGOS WITH DRY COLLECTION CUP trap is a trap designed especially for the capture of insects that walk on the barks of trees, capable of adapting to the perimeter of the tree trunk due to its flexible funnel. The trap consists of a soft funnel that is 30 cm in diameter, connected to the collection cup. On the side of the trap, in contact with the tree, a cellular polypropylene sheet is placed and folded in the shape of a vertical cover. The trap is fixed to the tree with two nylon cords. The lower cord holds the trap and joins together the cellular polypropylene sheet and the funnel through a series of perforated holes and grooves in the cellular polypropylene sheet. The upper cord is used to maintain the sheet attached to the tree. The cellular polypropylene sheet also has drilled lateral holes to hang the attractants, such as ECONEX CERAMBYX 60 DAYS. The sheets, funnel and collection cup are treated with a slippery film to significantly increase captures and prevent the pests from escaping. The dry collection cup has approximately a 2 litre capacity (12,5 cm diameter x 19 cm height) and is provided with a stainless steel mesh that drains away rainwater 100% and provides excellent air circulation for dry (live) captures.
