Muscalure is a unique attractant for flies based on fly pheromones. Housefly females produce this sex pheromone to attract males.
By targeting sex pheromones and the associated group behaviour (aggregation pheromone), Muscalure is particularly effective in fly control applications. The attraction effect allows the flies to absorb more agent, so that the pheromone increases the effectiveness of the agent.
