[Bugs for Bugs] Fruit Fly Lure Thickener

A food grade thickener. Add to Fruit Fly Lure mix to improve weathering and longevity in the field.

Sold in 2 kg pack.

How does it work?

• Fruit fly lure thickener increases the viscosity of the protein bait mixture
• This improves rainfastness and helps the protein lure remain attractive longer in the field

How to mix

• It takes time for the thickener to go into solution
• We recommend mixing thickener with water 24 hours before addition of Fruit Fly Lure protein
• Alternatively, pre-mix thickener with water for a minimum of 30 minutes before use
• Gentle agitation with an electric stirring rod or paint mixer will speed up the process
• Add Fruit Fly Lure protein plus toxicant to thickened water on the day of application

Use thickener at the following rates:

• High fruit fly pressure: 5 g/L
• Low to moderate fruit fly pressure: 2.5 g/L
