FAQs for Katyayani White Grub Lure (Holotrichia Consanguinea/Serrata)
1. What is the Katyayani White Grub Lure?
Ans. The Katyayani White Grub Lure is a pheromone-based trap used to control and monitor white grubs (Holotrichia Consanguinea and Serrata) in agricultural fields.
2. How does the white grub lure work?
Ans. The lure releases a synthetic pheromone that mimics the natural attractants of white grubs, drawing the male beetles into the trap. This reduces the white grub population by interrupting their reproductive cycle.
3. What crops are susceptible to white grub infestation?

5. How long does the lure remain effective?
Ans. Each lure is effective for about 4-6 weeks, after which it needs to be replaced to ensure continuous trapping.
6. How many traps do I need per acre?
Ans. It is recommended to use 1-2 traps per acre for monitoring purposes. In cases of heavy infestation, more traps may be necessary for effective population control.
