Characteristics
Ekolex-V is adhesive trap used for entrapping cockroach species of the family Blattidae – Oriental cockroach (Blatta orientalis) and German cockroach (Blatella germanica). The trap is effective for detecting, indicating and monitoring the occurrence but it is also a pest control solution for these kinds of insects.
Active substances
The active substance of the adhesive layer consists of the specific mix of food attractant and sexual and aggregation pheromones.
Effect
A vault-shaped trap is covered on the inner side with a glue containing attractant. The crawling insects are lured not only by this substance but also into the artificial hideout represented by the vault-shaped trap. The onset of effect comes almost instantly. More specimens are caught, more aggregation pheromones are concentrated. As a result, the displayed traps are highly effective.
Instructions for use
The trap needs to be arranged in a geometric shape by peeling off protective foil from sticky base and forming an aperture. Ekolex-V must be laid down or hanged on the straight surface with its flat side.
Warning! Keep out of reach of children!
Exposure time
The onset of effect comes almost instantly. The exposure time is 1 – 3 weeks. Quick filling with insects or use in areas exposed to dust may shorten this period.
