Latin Name | Lasioderma serricorne |
Common Name | Tobacco beetle |
Biology | Adults exhibit nocturnal activity, ovipositing in fissures of stored commodities such as tobacco and medicinal herbs. Larvae bore into storage materials, spinning silk and forming webs that induce clumping and deterioration, rendering commodities unsellable – a notorious warehouse pest. |
Damage | This pest primarily damages tobacco, tea, grains, medicinal materials, dried goods. |
Distribution Regions | Storage facilities worldwide |
Monitoring | Pheromone lures mimic natural sex pheromones to attract male insects into specialized traps for population monitoring and suppression. As a core IPM component, monitoring enables early risk detection and targeted control. Mass trapping reduces mating opportunities to curb offspring populations. Protocols: ●Use only with matched traps. ●15-45 traps/hectare,replace/replenish every 4-6 weeks. ●Wear gloves or wash hands with detergent when switching lure types. ●Refer to trap-specific hanging instructions. |
Recommended Traps | Delta Trap, Wing Trap |
