Trece’s kit pairs species-specific lures with sticky delta traps and hangers, enabling targeted mass trapping that interrupts the pest’s lifecycle. The traps are simple to deploy and are suitable for use in organic production or home orchards where non-chemical control is preferred.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the Trece kit stop Citrus Leafminer infestations?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit uses a synthesized sex pheromone that mimics what female leafminers release to attract males. Males entering the trap get stuck to the adhesive surface and are removed from the breeding population, which reduces mating and subsequent egg-laying in new foliage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpecies-specific pheromone lures attract only Citrus Leafminer males.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSticky delta trap retains captured moths for monitoring and mass trapping.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRegular replacement of lures maintains attraction throughout the season.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere and when should I place these traps in my orchard or yard?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlace traps in the shady part of the tree canopy near new flush growth where leafminers prefer to lay eggs. Begin trapping as soon as new shoots appear in spring and continue through periods of active leaf flushing; replace lures every 60 days or sooner in hot climates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHang traps about 4–6 feet above ground or at canopy height for best interception.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePosition traps inside or on the outer edge of the canopy among tender leaves.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCheck traps weekly to monitor catch and decide on control timing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat’s included and how long will each lure last?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe three-pack contains three sticky delta traps, three pheromone lures, and hangers, plus instructions for setup and use.

Because they rely on pheromones and passive trapping instead of sprayable pesticides, they are compatible with organically managed groves and home organic plantings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSafe for organic programs when used according to directions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for commercial and residential citrus plantings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTargeted action minimizes impacts on non-target insects and beneficials.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWho is this for: The Trece Citrus Leafminer Trap Kit is intended for citrus growers, home orchardists, and organic producers who want a low-toxicity, species-targeted tool to monitor and reduce Citrus Leafminer pressure.
