Frankliniella occidentalis lure is a component of an insect trapping device, that uses pheromones to lure Western flower thrips into a trap.

The lure, in the form of the rubber dispenser, that contains pheromone of Western flower thrips, must be placed in a trap to be fully functional (traps can be bought separately or in kits with lures).

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

The lures in the traps must be replaced every 4-6 weeks to keep attraction rates high.

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