Q: What is the Pear Gall Midge, and where is it prevalent?
A: The Pear Gall Midge is a pest of pear orchards, primarily found in Europe. The larvae infest developing pear fruits, causing deformation and reducing their marketability.

Q: How much crop damage does it cause?
A: Pear Gall Midge infestations can result in 50-80% yield losses in heavily affected orchards, with the larvae rendering fruits unsuitable for sale.

Q: How does PheroSyn’s pheromone monitoring help?
A: PheroSyn’s pheromone traps target male Pear Gall Midges, helping farmers track pest activity. This timely monitoring allows for precise interventions, reducing crop losses and minimizing pesticide usage. Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategies, paired with pheromone monitoring, offer a sustainable solution for pear growers.
