The ThriPher dispenser contains a sexual aggregation pheromone that attracts western flower thrips (Frankliniella occidentalis). ThriPher is effective for 4 to 6 weeks and attracts both male and female adult thrips. This pheromone is specific to western flower thrips, so harmless thrips and beneficials will not be attracted.

In most cases, the first thrips have been present on the plants for several weeks before they are detected on the sticky traps. As a result, the population can grow without being noticed. Using ThriPher in combination with blue sticky traps allows thrips to be detected as soon as they appear. The pheromone attracts two to three times more thrips to the sticky trap and allows for faster detection. This allows the grower to react earlier and adjust their intervention strategy. In general, it is much easier to control a pest when its population is low.

ThriPher is also a valuable ally when the grower uses the chemical control method. When the pheromone is introduced into the greenhouse a few hours before treatment, adult thrips come out of hiding and are thus more exposed to the product.
