"Chemistry" seems indispensable in fields - there was a reason for the invention of artificial means against pests. However, both consumers and farmers would like to not have to worry about poisoning when they don't eat food all the time.
If nature had a remedy for all pests at once, there would be no reason to synthesize artificial drugs. However, artificial substances have not become a solution to all problems: if used incorrectly, they harm both people and the environment. So, instead of partially helping artificial drugs, you can use the same effective natural substitutes.
For more than 30 years, insect sex and aggregation pheromones have been widely distributed in different countries of the world.
What are the uses, advantages and benefits of pheromones?
1. Selective effect of pheromones (specific for each species)
2. High sensitivity (ability to detect a small number of pests)
3. Absence of poisoning and, as a result, environmental safety
4. Easily removed at the end of application
5. Control within a radius of several kilometers for up to 3 months
6. Protection from quarantine pests and reserve pests
