Olive Trees

Olives are used around the world, whether as a savory delicacy, or as oil used for cooking, cosmetics, lighting and even religious ceremonies. Regardless of use, olives are an economically and culturally important crop in semi-arid regions of the world. Yet olives are threatened by the olive fruit fly, a pest able to infect up to 80% of the yield, causing significant economic damage.

As the pest develops inside the fruit, applying pest control against adults as soon as they emerge is paramount to reduce damage in the field.
