2. How does the fall armyworm lure work?
Ans. The lure emits a synthetic pheromone that mimics the scent of female armyworms, attracting male armyworms to the trap. This disrupts their mating process, helping to reduce the overall population.

Ans. Each lure is effective for about 3-4 weeks. After that, it should be replaced to maintain effective trapping.
