An innovative Tuta absoluta trap.Ferolite is an innovative Tuta absoluta trap where light and pheromones
are combined to maximise trap catches. To maximise mass trapping
with a view to capturing female Tuta absoluta moths as well as the
male, Russell IPM incorporated a specific wavelength of light and
sex pheromone in a single trap as Ferolite. The operating principle of
Ferolite is based on the synergy of sex pheromone and a particular light
frequency to which Tuta absoluta is most attracted to. Ferolite is a self
contained, ready to use unit powered by solar energy. The solar based
unit will extend the reach of the technology to remote farms that
normally have no access to a mains power supply.
Ferolite has proved up to 200-300% more effective than the standard pheromone trap.
The synergistic effect of light and pheromone increases the trap catches substantially.
In experimental studies Ferolite showed a significant improvement on capturing
Tuta absoluta than that of application pheromone and light individually.
Tuta absoluta mating patterns have been studied extensive in green houses. The
maximum numbers of moths were captured in the Ferolite, pheromone and light trap
during the time frame of 3-4 hours before sunrise. Therefore the Ferolite trap light is
controlled through a regulator to switch on the light in the last quarter of the night to
maximize the trap efficacy.

Ferolite is an innovative Tuta absoluta trap based on the synergy between sex pheromone and a particular
wave length of light to which Tuta absoluta is most attracted. Using Ferolite in conjunction with the
TUA-Optima lure showed a huge improvement to the mass trapping of Tuta absoluta. The Ferolite trap has
been evaluated in research trials and has proved to a high performance Tuta absoluta trap that is non toxic
to the environment and to non target organisms including other beneficial arthropods, pollinators and
mammals. The excellent performance of the trap significantly reduced the number of the background
population of Tuta absoluta and maintained a good level of control. The Ferolite based mass trapping system
shows a significant efficacy for the control of Tuta absoluta that has developed increasing resistance to
conventional insecticides.
Ferolite is pre-programmed to operate during the hours before dawn when Tuta absoluta is most active. This
feature targets Tuta absoluta’s mating behaviour while minimising trapping of all other insects including
beneficial insects which are normally not active during that time window and also are not sensitive to the
particular wavelength emitted by the Ferolite trap. Ferolite-TUA is a self contained unit powered by solar
energy. The solar-based unit will extend the reach of this technology to remote farms, which normally have
no access to a mains power supply.
Main Advantages:
■ Ferolite based on synergy of sex pheromone and a special wavelength of light.
■ Integration of Pheromone and light trap in one solar powered unit.
■ 200-300% more effective than the standard pheromone traps.
■ Specially design for mass trapping.
■ Compatible with all sorts of biological control systems.
■ Non toxic to environment and to beneficial arthropods including pollinators.
■ Safe, effective and environmentally friendly.
