Mohini Pink Bollworm Pectinophora gossypiella Lure for Cotton

Mohini Pink Bollworm Lure – Targeted Defense for Cotton Protection

Mohini Pink Bollworm Lure by Biowall Agrihealth Pvt. Ltd. is a highly effective pheromone-based solution specifically designed to trap Pectinophora gossypiella—the Pink Bollworm—one of the most destructive pests in cotton farming. It enables cotton growers to monitor pest populations and perform mass trapping to prevent crop loss in a safe and eco-friendly manner.

How It Works

The lure emits species-specific pheromones that attract male Pink Bollworm moths into a funnel trap where they are captured and cannot mate. This interruption in the mating cycle leads to significant reduction in pest reproduction and population buildup.

Key Features & Benefits

1. Highly Specific Action: Targets Pink Bollworms only, with no harm to beneficial insects.
2. Field-Tested Efficiency: Recommended and trusted by cotton farmers across pest-prone zones.
3. Flexible Usage: Use for monitoring (5 lures/acre) or intensive control (12 lures/acre).
4. Easy Integration with Funnel Traps: Designed for compatibility with Mohini Funnel Traps.
5. Non-Chemical Approach: Leaves no toxic residue, ideal for sustainable cotton cultivation.

Usage Instructions

• Insert the lure into a clean Mohini Funnel Trap.
• Hang the trap 1–2 ft above the cotton crop canopy.
• As the crop grows, adjust the trap height accordingly.
• Inspect and empty the trap regularly to remove captured moths.

Application Rate

Important Storage & Handling Guidelines

• Do not squeeze, rub, press, or wet the lure.
• Keep lures sealed until use to preserve pheromone quality.
• Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and high temperatures.
• Dispose used lures safely; do not reuse.

Conclusion

Mohini Pink Bollworm Lure is an essential tool in cotton pest management. With proper use, it helps protect cotton yields, reduces dependency on insecticides, and fits seamlessly into Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs. For best results, pair with quality traps and timely field inspection.
