Description
Agrisense Extended Life Moth Lures – Blue, Green, Red & Yellow
Agrisense Extended Life Moth Lures are professional pheromone lures designed for the monitoring and early detection of stored product moths in food manufacturing, warehousing, grain storage, commercial food facilities and other environments where stored commodities are handled.
Available in Blue, Green, Red and Yellow, the lures form a simple colour-coded annual monitoring system. Each lure provides up to 12 weeks of pheromone release, allowing pest managers to maintain consistent stored product moth monitoring throughout the year.
The lures are designed to attract important stored-product moth species including Indian meal moth (Plodia interpunctella) and Ephestia species commonly associated with flour, grain, cereals, nuts, seeds, dried foods, pet food and other stored products.
Colour-Coded Annual Moth Monitoring
The four colours correspond to quarterly replacement periods:
- Blue: January to March
- Green: April to June
- Red: July to September
- Yellow: October to December
This colour-coded system gives pest technicians a quick visual reference for determining when a lure was installed and when it should be replaced.
For sites requiring continuous monitoring, simply move through the four colours during the year.
Professional Stored Product Moth Monitoring
Stored product moth infestations can develop within raw materials, finished goods, packaging and stored food commodities.
Pheromone monitoring helps pest managers detect adult moth activity before populations become more established. Regular trap inspections can also help identify areas of increased activity and guide further inspection or treatment.
Agrisense Extended Life Moth Lures are suitable for professional pest management programs where reliable, long-term monitoring is required.

How Agrisense Moth Lures Work
Each lure releases a controlled pheromone attractant that draws male target moths towards the monitoring trap.
Captured moths provide pest managers with valuable information about pest activity within the facility.
Regular monitoring can help technicians:
- Detect moth activity early
- Identify potential infestation hotspots
- Compare pest pressure between different areas
- Track increases or decreases in moth populations
- Assess the effectiveness of pest management measures
- Maintain documented pest monitoring records
For continuous monitoring, replace each lure approximately every 12 weeks according to the colour-coded annual schedule.
Target Stored Product Moths
Agrisense Extended Life Moth Lures are designed for monitoring stored-product moth species including:
Indian meal moth – Plodia interpunctella
One of the most common stored-product moths encountered in food manufacturing, warehousing and storage environments.
