Overview
Barrix Hunter® Rhinoceros Beetle Trap & Lure is an innovative trapping system designed to protect palm plantations from the destructive Rhinoceros Beetle. Developed using advanced pheromone technology, the system effectively attracts adult beetles using a unique combination of aggregate pheromone and kairomone, trapping them before they can damage growing palms.
Unlike chemical insecticides, Barrix Hunter provides a non-toxic and environmentally safe approach to pest management. The trap is manufactured from UV-stabilized, thermo-resistant recyclable plastic, allowing it to be reused for multiple seasons, while the lure remains effective for up to 120 days under field conditions. It is supported by the Department of Scientific & Industrial Research (DSIR) and the Atal Innovation Mission (AIM), Government of India.
