It can also be used to attract the beetles to Rebell white sticky traps. This lure lasts 6 weeks from opening. This plant extract attracts adult Raspberry beetles (Byturus tomentosus) to a trap. Use of Raspberry beetle traps allows a user to identify risk to plants and take action before beetle larvae burrow into the fruit.

When is best to use?

For use when adult beetles are active before egg laying.

The problem: The Raspberry beetle (Byturus tomentosus) is a pest of cane fruit (such as Raspberries, Blackberries, Tayberries and Loganberries). Adult beetles lay eggs on the plant flowers and the larvae burrow into the fruit where they remain hidden until harvest. Ruined fruit due to larvae feeding is mostly a problem on summer fruiting varieties.   

The product: Trapping adult beetles alerts users to the presence of the pest and determine if further control action is required.
