How to Use

  • Use Lybolty Kit as part of a mass monitoring or push-pull strategy for Lygus bugs.
  • Apply 400 Lybolty bags per hectare, equivalent to approximately 162 bags per acre, and replace every 2 months
  • Space Lybolty bags every 5–8 metres, or approximately 16–26 feet, and distribute them uniformly throughout the crop for optimal coverage.
  • In strawberry, hang Lybolty tablets on
    micro-sprin­klers or staple to a 30cm (12 in) wooden paint stir stick.
  • In cranberries, tie Lybolty bags to the
    trellis wires.
  • Do not place the bags directly on the soil, as
    contact with the ground can accelerate dispenser degradation.
  • For best results, start use prior to lygus
    movement into the field, such as prior to flowering. Once lygus are in the
    field, the effect could be less pronounced.
  • Shipments include red sticky cards that must be
    placed one in each side of the field as a monitoring tool. This helps to attract and capture displaced Lygus adults. Mount each red sticky trap on a
    vertical stake positioned at ground level.
  • Replace red sticky cards every 2 months when Ly­bolty
    tablets are replaced.
