aPhinity BSLB™ is a pheromone lure used for detection of the brown spruce longhorn beetle. The addition of this lure to the black intercept traps baited with high release rate lures of ethanol and spruce blend synergies trap capture of the brown spruce longhorn beetle. The aPhinity BSLB™ lure may be placed on traps in May and will last for the duration of the season. No permit is required for the use of this lure due to the fact that it is used exclusively to detect the presence of the spruce longhorn beetle in the local area.

Suppression efforts with TM Biocontrol are neccessary in order to manage these invasive pests and to protect natural resources as well as forest integrity. The product can be applied by ground or by air and as with all baculoviridae, only the target species is affected.

BoVir is a great addition to LDD moth management as it is not harmful to humans or the environment, including pollinators and other lepidopterans. Due to its unique mode of action, BoVir is an important resistance management tool which can be included in any integrated pest management program (IPM) as well as utilized in areas where species at risk inhabit.
