Description

These highly durable plastic cards use the scientifically proven UC grid, which comprises of the distinctive 24-block design. This simplifies counting, requiring that the insects are counted only on the 24 specially marked squares and multiplied by 5, for an accurate figure to be attained.

These cards can be used in greenhouses, open fields, orchards, vineyards and home gardens for monitoring purposes.

Flytac® – an advanced, non-toxic adhesive, manufactured by Insect Science® – is applied to the Scale Card to ensure that all insects that come into contact with it are immediately trapped. Insect Science® manufactures these Scale Cards from specific wavelength colours that are highly attractive to insects.
