The avocado, lately dubbed “the green gold”, is a neotropical fruit tree, grown for its oily fruits in tropic and sub-tropic regions around the world. These trees are targeted by many wood-boring insect, including the mango stem-borer, which burrow tunnels into the trunk, degrading the tree and eventually leading to its death.
Using the IoTree ® provides early detection of larvae activity, allowing treatment of infected trees only and eliminates the need for preventative spraying, which can have negative long-term effects.
