Drosal - Cup Trap System
Cup trap system for monitoring and mass trapping Spotted-Wing Drosophila (Drosophila suzukii). The Drosal cup trap system was developed by the RIGA company in scientific collaboration with the Swiss research institute Agroscope Changings und Conthey (ACW) and has been successfully used by leading Swiss berry producers on berry crops for 3 years now.
The cup traps are filled with a highly attractive and selective lure. Holes in the cover sheeting allow the lure to escape. This is how it attracts spotted-wing drosophila into the body of the trap, where they drown. Given the appropriate assembly and trap accessories (see last page), the cup trap system can be reused year after year. The Drosal cup trap system can be used in both ecological and conventional production.
