Product information "Pheromone Drugstore Beetle (Stegobium paniceum)"

The species-specific pheromone is located in a plastic pheromone dispenser which is inserted into insect monitors in combination with adhesive surfaces.

As soon as the round plastic pheromone dispenser is removed from the aluminium packaging, it is activated and the pheromone gradually diffuses out of the round white to light yellow polyethylene fibres evenly (retard effect) over a period of up to 4-6 weeks.

Since pheromones are volatile substances, the dispenser must not be split up or an attempt made to distribute the pheromone from one dispenser to other monitors. The retard effect is lost and the pheromone's attracting effect lasts too short.

Please note: This product is only a plastic dispenser enriched with pheromones - without adhesive surface and without trap. To catch and hold insects, the dispenser must be placed in an insect monitor trap (e.g. AF Demi Diamond Insect Monitor) together with a neutral adhesive surface (e.g. AF Demi Diamond Adhesive Surfaces - neutral). These associated products are listed below.
