CDFA and Pheromones
California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA)
The California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) partners with Better World Manufacturing Inc. to incorporate pheromone-based solutions into its pest control programs. Pheromones, natural chemicals used to attract specific pests, play a key role in enhancing pest detection and monitoring efforts. By using pheromones in traps like the Multilure™ and other devices, CDFA effectively targets invasive pests while reducing the reliance on harmful pesticides, supporting eco-friendly pest management strategies that protect California’s crops and agricultural economy.
Natural and Effective Pest Attractants for Sustainable Control
Pheromones are naturally occurring chemical signals used in pest management to attract specific insects, such as moths, fruit flies, and beetles. These compounds are highly effective in luring pests to traps, where they can be captured or monitored. Pheromones offer a non-toxic, environmentally friendly alternative to chemical pesticides, making them an essential tool in integrated pest management strategies. By targeting only specific pest species, pheromones reduce the impact on beneficial insects, promoting biodiversity and supporting sustainable agricultural practices that protect crops while minimizing environmental harm.
