Protect Your Figs with the Black Fig Fly Lure

Black Fig Fly, Silba Adipata 

Fig growers in Southern California are facing a serious threat: the Black Fig Fly (BFF), an invasive insect that has been discovered infesting fig orchards across multiple counties. This pest exclusively targets figs, preferring unripe and unfertilized fruit. Infestations can lead to fruit damage, premature fruit drop, and even pupae developing inside the fruit—jeopardizing fig harvests and grower profits. It’s crucial to protect your fig trees from this growing threat..

 

Why You Need to Take Action Now:

• Exclusive Threat to Figs – The BFF only attacks fig trees, making them highly
vulnerable.
• Premature Fruit Drop – Infested figs fall before ripening, reducing yield.
• Hidden Infestations – BFF larvae develop inside the fruit, making detection difficult.
• Expanding Problem – The fly has been detected in multiple counties of Southern
California, and its presence is growing.

The best way to defend your orchard is by using the Alpha Scents Black Fig Fly Lure with the McPhail Trap. This powerful combination helps monitor and reduce BFF populations,
