Wasp attraction
EcoCatch Wasps combines visual and olfactory cues to increase the effectiveness of the trapping process and enable a high catch-rate.
Research indicates that wasps are highly attracted to certain colours, particularly pink. In a controlled study conducted at the Agricultural University of Athens, traps coloured pink, yellow and white were placed near apiaries. Results showed that pink traps were the most attractive to wasps, significantly more so than yellow and white. EcoCatch Wasps leverages this preference by incorporating this colour into its design to ensure a high catch-rate. We also found that wasps are more drawn to glossy surfaces than matt, and have adapted the solution to target this preference too.
The trap also uses a locally sourced attractant that adheres to local guidelines and regulations.
Trapping mechanism
Once wasps are attracted to the unit, they enter through the specially designed opening. The unique design of the traps prevents wasps from escaping once they enter, ensuring effective trapping and control.
Servicing
The trap is a serviceable fixed bait point, making it the most suitable product for offering an exterior wasp-monitoring service. Technicians can service it regularly, in line with SLAs, to ensure optimal efficiency.
