Synergistic Scent : Food baits placed inside the bucket release Smell. Together, the pheromone and food scent strongly attract both male and female adult weevils from a distance.
Entry: Attracted weevils climb the rough, textured exterior of the bucket using designated grip paths or side holes just below the lid
Capture and Mortality : Once inside the bucket, slippery inner walls prevent them from escaping. They drop into an water mixture at the bottom of the bucket, which quickly immobilizes and kills them
