The red brown elephant beetle (scientific name: Rhynchhophorus ferrogineus) belongs to the bamboo elephant family and the palm elephant genus. In tropical regions, the red brown elephant beetle undergoes three generations per year, while in subtropical regions, it mostly undergoes 2-3 generations, with overlapping generations; The adult red brown elephant beetle has the characteristics of short distance flight, social living, and false death; Likes to be active at night, often hiding under leaf axils and in crevices during the day, and only migrating short distances during feeding and mating. The red brown elephant beetle is native to India in South Asia. The insect is mainly distributed or has invaded the Middle East, East Asia, South Asia, Pacific islands and some countries and regions along the Mediterranean coast. In China, it is mainly distributed in Hainan, Guangdong, Guangxi, Jiangxi, Fujian, Shanghai, Yunnan, Xizang, Taiwan and other places, covering vast areas south of the Yangtze River.
After years of hard work by our R&D department, we have finally successfully developed a red brown elephant beetle attractant. After testing in multiple places such as Fujian and Guangdong, significant trapping effects have been shown, providing technical support for the green prevention and control of the red brown weevil, a major quarantine pest in the national forestry industry.
