Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural technology, and in particular to a device for controlling citrus psyllids. Background Technology

[0002] Citrus psyllids are a major pest of citrus plants during the new shoot growth stage and a vector for citrus Huanglongbing (HLB). Adults lay eggs on the tender shoots of the host plant, and the nymphs feed on the sap of these shoots until they emerge as adults. Affected shoots may exhibit wilting and deformities. The psyllids also secrete white honeydew that adheres to branches and leaves, causing sooty mold. Worse still, psyllids feed and lay eggs on HLB-infected citrus plants, producing large numbers of infected adults. These adults can then spread HLB by infesting new plants. The citrus psyllid primarily damages Rutaceae plants, with Citrus being the most severely affected, followed by Wampee, Murraya paniculata, and Citrus reticulata.

[0003] Currently, people need to use trapping devices to capture and treat pests to prevent them from causing large-scale destruction of the citrus industry. However, existing trapping devices are inconvenient to clean up, and the environmentally friendly insect traps used lose their insect-catching effect at night, resulting in poor performance. Therefore, a citrus psyllid control device is proposed. Utility Model Content
