Features & Benefits

Product Features

CheckMate® DBM-F is an easy-to-deploy product that releases the sex pheromone of the Diamondback Moth pest. This reduces the adult males’ ability to find females, disrupting the mating cycle. This proven pheromone release can reduce or delay mating and egg laying, suppressing pest populations and ultimately decreasing damage. It is tank-mixable with many common agrochemicals and can be used as an integral component of an IPM program. An effective partner with other pest control materials, this product may also assist growers in addressing insecticide resistance. The product is also signifcantly more worker-friendly than many common insecticide treatments, with minimal re-entry and pre-harvest intervals. All of Suterra’s CheckMate® products are harmless to other living organisms and benefcial insects.

  • Easy-to-deploy liquid formulation
  • Tank-mixable with common agrochemicals
  • Compatible with all IPM techniques
  • Does not harm beneficial insects

Monitoring

Use wing traps baited with DBM pheromone septa lures

1 trap per 20 acres; at least 2 traps per block

Hang traps at the height of the crop early in the season before the pest appears

Check traps weekly; replace lures every 4 weeks or at manufacturer’s recommended interval

Replace trap bottoms as needed to ensure stickiness

In mating disruption fields, pheromone trap suppression indicates the degree of mating disruption

DBM Damage Perform in-season damage assessments by looking for damaged crop in the field at the end of each DBM flight
