ISCA Technologies is committed to providing integrated pest management solutions that are effective, economical, environmentally friendly, and most importantly, do not have the harmful side effects of many conventional pest management techniques that rely solely on insecticides. ISCA’s SPLAT technology provides a versatile pheromone delivery system that can be combined with low dose pyrethroids and spinosyns to achieve specific killing action against a variety of pests that are typically targeted with mating disruption programs. The benefits of using SPLAT as a delivery system for attract and kill formulations include the timed release of both the pheromone and insecticide, along with the preservation of natural enemies and a drastic reduction in insecticide resistance and persistence in the field. Additionally, attract and kill formulations reduce costs and labor associated with trap saturation typical of mass-trapping programs.
