Problem Solved
This Varied Carpet Beetle Kit pairs the science of insect biology to the technology of a trapping system to assist you with the task of monitoring for these pests in your environment. In an Integrated Pest Management program, monitoring can ultimately help you reduce pest numbers when paired with a trapping system. The lures do this by:
1.) Telling you if insects are present
2.) Indicating where they are coming from and
3.) Finally telling you whether the control measures (E.g. removal of infested product, increased sanitation, freezing of infested products, etc), that you have taken are working or not
What to expect
When you open this kit box, you will find the 10 traps unfolded, and stacked along with 10 individually packaged Bullet Lures and an Instruction Sheet of
How to place the lure into the trap
Where to place the traps
When to replace the traps.
The traps will need to be folded into place by hand, according to the instructions on the back of the kit box. The glue pad on each trap is covered with an easily removed plastic cover that should be removed after the traps have been folded into place.
Each pheromone lure is individually packaged to keep them fresh until you are ready to place them into a trap. When you are ready to use this product, the lures should be removed from their packaging and placed on their sides into the center of the glue pads on each trap. Pheromone Bullet Lures are non-pesticidal and only act as an insect attractant. If the glue from the trap accidentally gets onto your hands, it is not toxic and can be easily washed off using soap and warm water.
Although the pheromone in the lures is non-toxic, avoid direct contact with your skin if possible or simply wash your hands with warm water and soap if contact is made. The traps are then ready to be placed out in areas where beetles are being seen to begin monitoring for male carpet beetles that are attracted to the female sex pheromone. These traps will give you the information that you need to reduce your carpet beetle issue.
