Pheromone Lure for Effective Control of Tomato Leaf Miner (Tuta absoluta)

Product Overview:
The Tomato Leaf Miner Moth Lure is a highly effective, natural, and eco-friendly pheromone-based pest control solution designed specifically for Tuta absoluta—a destructive moth pest that severely damages tomato and related crops.
