Quality
Our customers rely on us daily to protect their crops. We manufacture our own active ingredients and engineer our products in-house to ensure that we deliver the results our customers expect.

Sustainability
We use naturally occurring compounds to create products that are non-toxic, leave no harmful residues and do not leach into soil or groundwater. From your farm to our manufacturing, we strive to leave the land better for the future.
Innovation
The future of agriculture depends on innovation. We continue to be leaders in sustainable pest control by working directly with growers to bring the most useful, effective, and sustainable solutions to market.
Different Technologies, Same Objective
Pheromone mating disruption is an effective pest control tool. We have three main technologies to deliver our highest quality pheromones when and where you need them. Organic options available.

Puffer®
Aerosol release technology for precise and continuous season-long control.
Suterra invented and perfected aerosol mating disruption. The Puffer® is used on more acres than any other aerosol mating disruption product in the world to lower damage from Navel Orangeworm, Codling Moth, Oriental Fruit Moth, and other agricultural pests.

Flowable
Sprayable solution for improved flexibility and control.
CheckMate® Flowable formulations are tank-mix compatible with many common materials growers already use like fertilizers and insecticides, making them an easy addition to existing IPM (integrated pest management) programs. Affordable and ready when you are.

Dispenser
Proprietary passive pheromone release technology for continuous control.
We offer the only pheromone mating disruption for California Red Scale available to citrus growers and the longest lasting, zero-residue products for Vine Mealybug control in vineyards. Most CheckMate® Dispensers are OMRI listed or EPA labeled for organic production.
What is Mating Disruption?
Mating disruption uses pests’ own sexual communication signals to confuse them. These communication signals are chemicals called pheromones, and they have no effect on any other species but the target pest. With extra pheromone in the air, males can’t find females to mate. Less mating means less offspring, and less offspring means less crop damage.

Helping growers around the world
Around the world, Suterra creates healthier environments by reducing the use of conventional insecticides. Our products are used to treat millions of acres each year of tree fruit, tree nut, citrus, vine and vegetable crops across five continents and 30 countries. With corporate headquarters in Bend, Oregon and offices in Fresno, California and Valencia, Spain, our global team of experts in chemical synthesis, product formulation, entomology and agronomy drives a continuous pipeline that brings dozens of new product innovations to market each year.
