This poster highlights wound treatment as a low-cost preventive measure within the C4RPWC integrated Red Palm Weevil (RPW) management bundle. Fresh wounds created during pruning or offshoot removal can attract RPW adults and provide suitable sites for egg laying. Timely treatment of these wounds helps protect vulnerable tissues, reduces infestation risk when combined with repellent measures, and strengthens preventive RPW management at farm level.
