Koppert Launches AgriTrap Natural InsecticideHome

Dutch biologicals firm Koppert launched a new natural product called AgriTrap to its range of products combating insect pests. AgriTrap is based on natural polysaccharides and fights small pests such as aphids, whitefly, psyllids, scale insects, gall mite and spider mite. AgriTrap is suitable for most horticultural and fruit crops and ornamentals.

According to Koppert, the suspensions concentrate works quickly and effectively. It is safe for most natural enemies and is therefore ideal for use in integrated systems. It also has no negative effect on bumblebees.

A treatment of 1.000 to 2.000 liters of spray solution per hectare is required, depending on the plant’s stage of growth. Do not mix AgriTrap with other products. AgriTrap leaves no residue and no waiting time is required before harvesting. The product is simple to apply with standard spray equipment. It is also important to completely wet the underside of the leaves with the product and to never apply in direct sunlight or in temperatures above 30°C.
