LOWER THE COST OF OPERATION. MANAGE INSECTICIDE RESISTANCE.
CheckMateŽ PTB-XL Dispenser is a patented product that emits synthetic peach twig borer sex pheromone to disrupt mating of adult peach twig borers. Used as directed, this product saturates the orchard environment with the female sex pheromone so that individual males cannot locate female moths ready to mate. This product emits pheromone over an extended period of time (up to 90 days) providing continuous mating disruption and suppression over multiple generations of peach twig borer. This system was designed for use in peaches, nectarines, apricots, plums, prunes, cherries, other stone fruit, almonds, other nut crops and any other crop where peach twig borer is a problem. CheckMate PTB-XL Dispenser's long field life provides the lowest cost of control per acre per day.
