Variable Rate Mating Disruption for California Red Scale

Smart mating disruption made simple

  • Maximum protection when your crop is most vulnerable: Variable rate mating disruption means maximum pheromone release during peak mating activity.
  • Late season coverage: Ensure your crop is protected during late season pest generations
  • Hands-off, labour-free install: We install the system so you don’t have to.

Automated Camera Traps

The right information when you need it most

  • Save time: Eliminate manual trap checking to scale your scouting efforts.
  • Prioritize hot spots: Identify areas of high pest pressure from your phone or computer with automatic daily trap catch reports.
  • Hands-off, labour-free install: We install the traps and swap lures and liners for you.

Know Your In-Canopy Climate

In-canopy climate is what ultimately feeds all your decisions.

  • Know your variability: per-acre temperature & humidity pinpoints your risk.
  • Automated calculations: in-canopy degree day tracking predicts pest development.
  • Plan ahead: 7-day forecasting on a per-acre level helps you optimize inputs for key events.

“One of our ranches was the worst we’ve ever seen for California red scale. For 2 years we worked to get the problem under control, and last season we were able to pull some sprays - the first time we’ve ever reduced a spray, and it worked. In the end, we’re saving time and a bit of money, and the Semios mating disruption treated blocks are the cleanest they’ve ever been. As a research guy, I need agtech companies to prove it to me for 2 years before I’ll believe it works. One isn’t enough. Semios is one of the rare ones that works."
