CISH VMAT is a durable, rain-proof fruit fly trapping technology designed for cucurbit vegetable crops. It features a lure-impregnated wooden killing block (4.5 × 4.5 × 1.2 cm) housed in a 1100 ml protective container, providing 60–90 days of continuous effectiveness. The trap reduces fruit fly incidence, minimizes pesticide use, and enhances crop quality and yield.
