Bactrocera cucurbitae lure is a component of an insect trapping device, that uses to lure melon fruit fly into a trap.

The lure, in the form of the cellulose dispenser, that contains attractant for melon fruit fly, must be placed in a EC Fruit fly Trap to be fully functional (traps can be bought separately or in kits with lures).

Using such lures is an economic, environmentally sound approach to either monitor or trap these pests.

The lures in the traps must be replaced every 8-10 weeks to keep attraction rates high.

Shelf life - up to 2 years (optimum conditions).
