This new insect trap has been designed specifically for the effective monitoring and trapping of a wide range of STORED PRODUCT BEETLES.

The design ensures that the X-LURE™ Beetle Floor Trap can be used in the dustiest of conditions, with no reduction in efficiency and will not spill any liquid if accidentally kicked over.

All-round entry slits offer insects an attractive dark harborage in which to seek sex, food & shelter and is angled to encourage upward movement of the beetles.

In the bottom of the trapping pit lays a filter paper soaked in wheat germ oil, which is another powerful attractant for a wide range of these beetles.

Once the beetles fall on this surface, however, they get coated in the oil, which stops their escape. The oil also coats the insect’s spiracles that induces death…no messy glue used.

A special mix of food attractants, developed by the UK Government’s Central Science Laboratory is highly attractive to a wide range of stored product beetles & their larvae and is the key attractant.

Also present in this trap is the long-established ‘Pherogel’ pheromone lure for: Red & Confused Flour Beetles, Cigarette Beetles and Warehouse & Khapra Beetles.

Tests have shown that XLure MS Beetle Traps attract: Grain Weevils, Rice Weevils, Maize Weevils, Lesser Grain Borers, Foreign Grain Beetles, Saw Toothed Grain Beetles, Drug Store Beetles, Merchant Grain Beetles & Flour Beetles.
