“We have been trialling the Vortex Trap and the results have been more than we could ever hope for.
The loss in our snow peas prior to installation was as much as 27 per cent. Just 10 days later our losses had dropped to just 5 per cent and after a further 7 days was down to 2.5 per cent. On our final pick just one single pea had to be discarded.”

Success in moth and grub populations
“We’ve had success in reducing moth and grub populations – also of Rutherglen bug and red-shouldered beetle. Because insecticide use is kept to a minimum, the nursery is home to populations of fairy wrens and water dragons which work in conjunction with tools like the Vortex Insect Trap to keep insect numbers in check.”

Chemical use down 30%, yield up 30%
“The Vortex Insect Trap reduced the heliothis, thrip, and white fly damage in our tomato crop. This season we had a 30 per cent reduction in chemical use and a 30 per cent increase in crop yield.”
