COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT AMONG THE GOVERNMENTS OF THE REPUBLIC OF GUATEMALA, THE
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AND MEXICO FOR THE PREVENTION, DETECTION, SUPPRESSION
AND ERADICATION OF THE MEDITERRANEAN FRUIT FLY AND OTHER ECONOMICALLY IMPORTANT
FRUIT FLIES.

MEDFLY PEST FREE AREAS AND COUNTRIES IN AMERICA
STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES - MOSCAMED
To protect the pest-free areas in Guatemala, Mexico, the United States, and Belize, eradicating transient pest entries into pest-free areas and suppressing fertile events in low prevalence areas. To support preventive release programs in the United States. To support vegetable and fruit export protocols and the establishment, declaration, and recognition of new Medfly-free and low-prevalence areas in Guatemala.
To strengthen and expand the Program for the eradication of the Mediterranean fruit fly in Guatemala and the other countries of Central America.

SATELLITE TECHNOLOGY FOR PRECISE LOCATION OF THE PEST
Sites where Medfly is detected are registered by satellite coordinates which allows to exactly define the control actions.
The correct identification of the copulated pairs is carried out through the
fluorescent dye tagging, using the micro-epifluorescent equipment.
WILD FLY STERILE FLY
IDENTIFICATION OF WILD AND STERILE FLIES
PEST DETECTION BY FRUIT SAMPLING
Fruits are placed in a bag
Fruit is dissected to look for Medfly
larvae
Samples of the fruit are transferred to the
laboratory of immature stages
Coffee sampling is also carried out
Larvae are identified and the place of origin
is determined
The place where the sample is taken
is geolocated
Fruits are gathered from the trees
Samples are placed in suitable
environments
Pick up
Gator Manual pump Motorized pump ATVs
After locating the presence of the pest, ground sprays are carried out with GF-120 NF Naturalyte 0.02 CB, a natural origin product, certified for use in organic agriculture.
GROUND SPRAYS
The product attracts the fly
BAIT STATIONS
GF 120 Bait Station
BS are installed as part of ground control activities in urban or suburban areas and in dispersed hosts, also in coffee mills.

THE STERILE INSECT TECHNIQUE (SIT) IN THE FRUIT FLIES ERADICATION PRODUCTION AND AIR RELEASE PROCESS
Autocidal control is the use of sterile insects to
control their own species, taking
advantage of the copulations of Medflies
and reducing pest populations.

INCREASE OF MEDFLY FREE AREAS
INCREASED CONSUMPTION OF GUATEMALAN PAPAYA
GUATEMALAN ASSOCIATION OF EXPORTERS
The increase in the commercialization of this product is a direct result of the work of the Mediterranean Fly Program (Moscamed) in the northern region of the country, which today allows domestic producers to compete in the US market with high quality papayas, highlighted the agricultural sector manager of AGEXPORT, Carlos Salazar.
