    The Organic Fruit Fly Trap – Cera Trap is an innovative, highly effective method to assist in the management of fruit fly. It contains a unique protein-based liquid solution that is very attractive to both female and male fruit fly.

    The volatile compounds emitted by the trap are highly attractive to adult fruit flies with very little attractiveness to beneficial insects that may be in use. It doesn’t contain pheromones or insecticidal in its composition or in its mode of use.

    • The smell of the liquid lures the fruit fly into a specially designed trap
    • The organic liquid does not contain any pesticides and will continue to work even when many flies have drowned in the liquid
    • Certified for use in organic farming CAAE and by ECOCERT as input eligible for organic agriculture in the European Union.

    FAQ

    What makes the Cera Trap an environmentally friendly solution for fruit fly control?

    The Cera Trap is a completely ecological solution, containing no insecticides, pheromones, or harmful chemicals. The trap uses a food-based attractant to lure and capture fruit flies, minimizing impact on beneficial insects and the surrounding environment. This makes it ideal for organic gardening and those concerned about the impact of traditional pesticides.

    How do I know when and where to place the Cera Trap in my fruit trees?

    Hang Cera Traps when your fruit reaches about one-third of its final size and at least 45 days before fruit ripening to get ahead of the fruit fly population. Place the traps on the northern side of the tree, approximately 1.5 meters high, within the tree canopy, ensuring even distribution throughout your garden, focusing on areas with high fruit fly activity. Proper placement will maximize the trap’s effectiveness and protect your fruit from damage.

    Can Cera Traps effectively control a variety of fruit fly species, and what fruits are they most suitable for?

    Yes, Cera Trap is effective against several fruit fly species, including the Queensland fruit fly and the Mediterranean fruit fly, providing broad-spectrum control. It is suitable for use in a wide range of fruits including citrus (oranges, lemons), stone fruits (peaches, apricots), and other fruits like apples, pears, and berries. By targeting multiple species and being versatile for different fruits, Cera Trap offers comprehensive protection for your entire orchard or garden.

    There doesn’t seem to be any instructions with my traps. Do I add water to the powder?? If so how much?? Ruth asked on 26 February 2025

    Hey Ruth,
    The Organic Fruit Fly Trap - Cera Trap doesn't have a powder bait, it's a liquid bait.

    Is there a specific trap for Mediterranean and Qld or can I use the same trap with different solutions in each? Helen asked on 24 November 2024

    Hey Helen,
    When using Fruit Fly Traps such as the Organic Fruit Fly Trap - Cera Trap, the bait is more important than the trap, you should be able to use different more species targeted solutions with this trap

      Does the job. Not a great subject for postie delivery because bait lid seal isn’t all that secure, even with bubblewrap cushioning.
