The olive fruit fly Dacus (Bactrocera) oleae is considered the most important pest of olive trees in the regions where it is present, as it can have consequences on the quantity and quality of the crops. Today, more than ever, it is necessary to apply good agricultural practices that will protect olive production from this insect without destabilizing the ecosystems due insecticide poisons.
In this direction, significant progress has been made in the technological innovation of insect-attractants and insect-traps. A specific PET insect trap 1,4lt is produced by IBS for an ecologically protective olive crops system from Dacus oleae fly developed by Phytopyl -N.Stavrakis company.
