C&C Trap
MOSCAMED Guatemala Program
MOSCAMED Guatemala partners with Better World Manufacturing Inc. to implement cutting-edge sterile insect technique (SIT) programs that control destructive pests like the Mediterranean fruit fly while eliminating pesticide use. This collaboration strengthens Guatemala's agricultural exports through sustainable pest management solutions, supports smallholder farmers with eco-friendly alternatives, and protects vital pollinator habitats through integrated beekeeping initiatives - ensuring both crop protection and environmental conservation across Central America's key growing regions.
C&C Trap
C&C (Cook and Cunningham) is comprised of three detachable panels. The outer panels, made of coated paperboard, are flanked by a central panel containing 10 g of trimedlure. Clips securely hold the entire unit together. The trap was specifically designed for the controlled release of trimedlure, allowing for precise amounts to be dispensed. It is also utilized for monitoring and detecting instances of minimal medfly populations. Depending on the prevailing environmental conditions, the lure within the trap can remain effective for an extended period, spanning several months.
