In addition, custom-made lures can be produced based on the client’s specifications. New pheromones are continuously being discovered and can be identified upon request. Our services include optimizing pheromone mixtures for the development of region-specific blends and the identification of new pheromones. Using our production facility, we can produce insect-specific pheromones and other semiochemicals on a kilogram scale.

    Pherobank combines a long-standing history as the leader in pheromone research with a global outlook and next-generation standards for chemical synthesis. Our modern facilities ensure state-of-the-art research and the rapid development and cost-effective manufacturing of insect pheromones for monitoring and controlling pest insects.

    HistoryPheromone research in the Netherlands began in the early 1970s. In those early days, Pherobank was integrated into the Dutch research institute IPO-DLO, which later became part of Plant Research International. In collaboration with the Dutch organization TNO, Pherobank identified pheromones released by the summer fruit tortrix Adoxophyes orana and the South American potato tuber moth Phthorimaea operculella. In the mid-1990s, the pheromone released from Tuta absoluta was identified, followed more recently by the pheromones from Duponchelia fovealis and Opogona sacchari and a potent new attractant for Drosophila suzukii.

    After more than 40 years of experience in the field of pheromone identification and synthesis, Pherobank now possesses the world’s largest collection of lepidopteran pheromone compounds. In January of 2012, Pherobank BV became an independent limited company, and together with our partners we develop, produce, and supply sustainable solutions to assist farmers, government organizations, and others in satisfying the strict regulations regarding fruit and vegetable production with respect to food safety (e.g., GLOBAL-GAP, BRC), the environment, and quality control. Pherobank is a member of the International Biocontrol Manufacturers’ Association (IBMA) and will become ISO9001:2015 certified in 2016.

    Semiochemicals are natural compounds that are emitted by plants and animals to evoke behavioral and/or physiological responses in other organisms. Semiochemicals that affect indi-viduals within the same species are called pheromones. Pheromones are used by insects to find other members of the same species and/or for mating. For example, female Tuta abso-luta moths release a specific volatile blend of phero mones that is perceived by the male of the species. This specific pheromone blend is irresistible to male Tuta absoluta moths, and they will follow the scent until they locate the source. In nature, the female moth releases this blend to mate and produce larval offspring, which then feed on crops. A Pherobank dispenser can be used to release the pheromone scent to attract male moths to the lure, where they will be caught in a trap. Because phero-mone blends are insect-specific, they can be used to selectively attract only conspecific species, and Pherobank is a leading expert at researching, developing, and producing pheromone blends that are specific to a wide variety of insects.Pherobank’s pheromones are identical to natural pheromones and are non-toxic, making them safe for use in a wide range of applications.

    Identification of pheromonesPherobank has its own dedicated GC-EAD setup which enables us to use the antenna (nose) of the insect to identify new pherom-ones. In case the chromatogram shows potential interesting com-pounds, we use other techniques like GC-MS, NMR, and chemical synthesis to identify the pheromone compounds. With more than 500 pheromone reference compounds in stock, Pherobank is par-ticularly well suited to carry out this kind of research.

    Application of pheromonesPherobank’s insect-specific pheromone blends are formulated as ready-to-use attractive lures for use in monitoring and mass-trapping programs. Monitoring insect populations pro-vides farmers with important timing information that can be used to assess the need for additional control measures.Figure 2 shows a hypothetical example of pheromone trap captures during the summer season. In general, the use of 2-4 traps per hectare is sufficient to obtain an accurate estimate of the total insect population. At minimum, two traps should

    be place per location. In practice, both the optimum number of traps per hectare and the threshold level must be deter-mined empirically. In the above example, the number of trap captures reveals the appropriate time for control measures and illustrates the effectiveness of the application. Insects such as Planococcus citri and Opogona sacchari fly only limited distances in greenhouses. In order to accurately moni-tor the infestation levels of these species, a higher number of pheromone traps is needed. If 20-40 traps are used per hectare, the infestation hotspots can be identified, and the population den-sity can then be decreased significantly (for example, in the case of Opogona sacchari). Using a high number of traps has the same side benefits in controlling several other insect species, including Phthorimaea operculella, Tuta absoluta, Tecia solanivora, Sym-metrischema tangolias, and Helicoverpa armigera. Insect pheromone traps should be positioned at an appropriate height, which will depend on the insect species. For example, to target click beetle species, the traps must be buried partially in the soil; to target the Oak processionary moth, the traps must be placed in the top of the canopy. For the best type of trap to use, the color, height, and location of the trap must be determined empirically for each insect. Ready-to-use pheromone lures for monitoring a wide variety of lepidopteran species are currently in stock. These lures are manufactured by Pherobank and contain precise optimized pheromone blends. The unique blend of high-purity pheromones ensures high attraction and the longevity of our pheromone lures. Custom-tailored dispensers can also be produced on request. Because our analytical facilities ensure the highest possible quality, you are ensured an excellent product. Pheromone lures can be used in combination with traps to provide a highly selective method for the detection of a specific insect species. The number of insects trapped each week (or day) provides information regarding the insect population’s density and growth. Insect pheromone traps can help determine the optimum time for taking insect control measurements. Thus, Pherobank’s products help to improve the environmental sustainability of agricultural crop systems.

    InnovativePherobank BV is committed to the development of insect control programs and monitoring products that are innovative, cost-effective, easy to use, and highly effective.

    Because our insect pheromone products are nature-identical chemical substances, their effectiveness can be influenced by external factors such as direct sunlight, wind and/or heat. At Pherobank, we are continuously improving the efficiency of our products. Nevertheless, choosing the proper dispenser (lure) type is essential for achieving optimum results. For most pheromones, a natural rubber dispenser (nr) is best; for others, we recommend a different type of dispensing system. In collaboration with other research groups, the Pherobank team has developed and tested various types of dispensers for each insect species to provide the best product possible.

    Handling of pheromone luresPheromone lures must be stored in their original sealed pack-aging preferably in the freezer (below -20°C) or refrigerator (4-6°C) until use. When stored properly, Pherobank pherom-one lures are guaranteed for one year. Before opening, allow the pheromone lure to reach room temperature in its original packaging. When handling pheromone lures, we recommend washing your hands and/or changing gloves between one spe-cies lure and another to avoid potential cross-contamination, which may decrease the effectiveness of the lure.

    Figure 3. Handling of a pheromone dispenser, the picture on the left shows correct handling.

    Handling of pheromone dispensersNever slide the pheromone dispenser over another object. The pheromone must be allowed to evaporate from the inside of the pheromonedispenser. If necessary pierce dispensers only through the side border. Position the pheromone dispenser two centimeters above the surfaceof the sticky insert in a delta trap. When a water trap is applied, position the pheromone dispenser in the centre, two centimeters above thewater level. Never open the polyethylene vials (figure 3) as the pheromone will release very fast and the capsule will become inactive within afew days. The polyethylene vial is slightly permeable and the pheromone will slowly evaporate through the wall of the vial.

    Placement of the trapIf possible, hang the traps about 10 cm above the crop, or at a place which enables simple regular inspection (eye height). Place the traps asevenly as possible over the area to avoid mutual influencing. Respect at least 10 meters between traps. In greenhouses the traps can beplaced best alongside the (concrete) path.

    The use of pheromones may be subject to local legislation.

    Traps and accessoriesLuring the insect is one thing, but trapping the insect can be an even bigger challenge. For example, although the Tuta absoluta pheromone is so potent that the moths will swarm around you when you open a package of lures, the male Tuta absoluta moth can become confused in the vicinity of a pheromone lure, and the traps can remain nearly empty when using a small trap. In such a situation, the solution is to simply use a larger trap (for example, a Pherobank water trap).

    When you only wish to determine the presence of a pest, a small trap such as our delta trap is usually sufficient. However, in cases in which the population is larger and/or you wish to catch as many insects as possible, a high-capacity trap such as the Unitrap or a Pherobank water trap should be used.

    Both the shape of the trap and its color can also influence its efficacy. This is because both pest insects and non-target in-sects can be sensitive to certain colors. For example, a yellow trap is attractive to many bees, including bumblebees.

    When an insect approaches a delta trap, it will become trapped on the insert’s sticky surface. Funnel and fruit fly traps can be filled with water that contains a detergent to prevent the insects from escaping. Funnel and fruit fly traps can also be used without a killing agent or water, as the trapped insects will eventually die in the trap. The Pherobank water trap also requires water with detergent to trap and kill the attracted insects.

    Delta traps (dtt and dtw)Pherobank offers two different types of delta traps: a budget-priced transparent delta trap (dtt) and a stronger, larger opaque white delta trap (dtw). The transparent delta trap is unattractive to insects and is therefore the least dis-criminating trap available. The transparent delta trap comes complete with metal wire and is available in a set of 10 traps. The dtt sticky inserts, which are available separately in boxes of 20, are used to complete the trap. These inserts are composed of PVC and have a thin coating of high-quality, non-drying glue.

    Pherobank also offers a larger, more robust white polypro-pylene delta trap. This trap has a larger sticky surface and is therefore better suited to trapping larger insects. This trap is sold in individual units, and each trap includes one sticky insert and a hanger. Additional sticky inserts for this trap can be ordered separately. The white delta trap comes stand-ard with the Pherobank name and logo imprinted on it, but we are happy to provide non-printed traps as well as traps with your logo pre-printed on them; please inquire for more information.

    The original Pherobank Unitrap includes a lid, funnel, and bucket, plus a cage and cap and—if requested—a barrier cross. The Unitrap is available in several color combinations. Each assembly component is available in green (gr), yellow (ye), and translucent white (tr). Most customers choose one of the following color combinations (lid/funnel/bucket): gr/gr/tr, gr/ye/tr, or gr/gr/gr. If the barrier cross is used, the most common color combination (lid/funnel/bucket/barrier) is gr/gr/tr/gr. Funnel traps include a cage with a cap to hold the phe-romone lure. A green tie (available separately) can be used to suspend the funnel trap.

    Practical information

    Pherobank water trap (wt)Pherobank offers a high-capacity water trap that is designed to effectively trap large numbers of insects. This trap is avail-able in several versions, each of which can be adapted to meet your specific needs. The basic trap configuration consists of a water reservoir, a two-part pillar, and a mounting plate. Note that this budget-priced configuration is not suitable for outdoor use, as the reservoir and lure are not protected from direct sunlight and rain. This trap is activated by adding deter-gent to the water.

    This basic configuration can be expanded by the addition of the following extensions:• sieve

    The sieve allows you to conveniently remove trapped insects without needing to replace the water.

    • protective lid This green lid is height-adjustable to customize the trap to your target insects. The lid protects the lure from direct sunlight and harsh outdoor conditions and decreases evapo-ration.

    • hanger The hanger can be used to suspend the water trap and can support a filled water trap weighing up to 4 kg.

    Fruit fly, wasp and fly trap (McPhail)(McP)The McPhail trap is an inverse funnel trap that is specifically designed to capture insects that prefer to enter from under-neath. Once under the trap, the insect will fly towards the light, where it will then be trapped. Because the insect will not fly back down, it will be unable to escape the trap. This trap is designed to be used with water and detergent as the killing agent; if liquid bait is used, detergent does not need to be added to the trap. The trap should be cleaned regularly to obtain the best results. A green tie (available separately) can be used to suspend the McPhail trap. The green cage is not included with the McPhail trap and can be ordered separately.

    Mediterranean fruit fly trap (fft)This trap is used to trap fruit flies, including Ceratitis and Bactrocera species. This trap is particularly well-suited for mass trapping programs and has an inverse funnel on the underside as well as four transparent entries.

    An optional galvanized steel bar is also available to elevate the funnel trap or McPhail trap in an open area.

    Drosophila suzukii trap (dst)The Drosophila suzukii trap has been designed especially to trap a maximum number of Drosophila flies. The small diam-eter of the openings prevent that larger insects like bees and larger flies will enter this trap.

    Rhyncho trapThe Red Palm Weevil (Rhynchophorus ferrugineus) originated in the tropical regions of Asia and Polynesia but has spread throughout other subtropical and temperate regions, coloniz-ing various species of palm trees and causing one of the larg-est infestations in the palms trees of Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa. This weevil is also now a major problem in South Europe, where it is devastating large numbers of palm trees.

    Pherobank now offers a pheromone dispenser and a special Rhynchophorus trap, which can be used to monitor and control this pest insect. In North Africa, 2-4 traps per hectare have been shown to be sufficient to provide a controlling effect. The minimum area to achieve a controlling effect is 10 hectares.

    1 See description of pheromone lure types (page 4).2 See description of traps and accessories (page 5-9).3 To obtain the most reliable result it is advised to change the lure every 4-8 weeks depending on the environmental situation. High temperatures, direct sunlight and

    wind will decrease the lifespan of a lure. When mentioned ‘MT possible’ we have received information from our customers that mass trapping is an option. Mass trap-ping may be subjected to local regulations, please consult your local regulations to ensure compliance.

    4 The pheromone lure for Dacus oleae contains 20 mg pheromone impregnated in a polyethylene lure. The liquid pheromone may not be visible in the vial. This will not negatively affect the efficacy of the lure.
