ECODIAN® COMBI

Usage tips

ECODIAN® COMBI should always be applied before the beginning of the flights, following the indications of the forecast models provided by the Pythosanitary Services and/or coincide with the very first catches in the pheromone traps. Considering that the first flight of Cydia is earlier than that of Anarsia, it’s recommended to apply ECODIAN® COMBI at the beginning of the flight of the first generation of Anarsia, ensuring that the first generation of Cydia has been controlled. Apply the diffusers on branches in the upper third of the tree, in shaded areas if possibile, taking care to distribuite evenly, also protecting uncovered areas such as fallows, corridors and breeding plants. In order to be effective, the number of spreaders should be sufficient to compete with the females in the orchard and minimise the likelihood of males detecting their calls. The minimum number of ECODIAN® COMBI required for each application is 2000 per hectare. This number should be increased to 2500/3000 per hectare with high populations, tall and vigorous plants. In orchards with ECODIAN® COMBI, Cydia (Grapholita) molesta and Anarsia lineatella, should be monitored with TRAPTEST®. This will allow the system to be monitored by installing traps prior to the start of flights. The control of the traps is very important and must be carried meticulously, the absence of cathces indicates that distorientation conditions have occured and persist. The activity of ECODIAN® COMBI is influenced by climatic parameters, under normal conditions it lasts for approximately 50 to 60 days.
