Olive tree pheromone
Surveillance through the use of pheromones is key to detecting the first individuals, monitoring the population, the start of flights, detecting the level of risk and deciding the appropriate moment for treatment with authorized phytosanitary products if necessary.
Phytosanitary treatments, to be effective, must be directed at the newborn larvae before they penetrate the fruit, so knowledge of the start and flight curves is essential to determine the precise moment of their application.
