PBC was established in 1985 by Biocontrol Limited, an Australian company. PBC develops and markets pheromone based pest management systems.
Pheromones are compounds emitted by insects to communicate with members of their species.
The product's active ingredients are synthetic copies of insect's natural sex pheromone. Products are non-toxic and environmentally safe. PBC products are designed to provide effective and economical control of key agricultural pests through the disruption of mating behavior. This approach can reduce the need for conventional toxic pesticides and limit the development of pest resistance. PBC sells its products through independent agricultural chemical distributors and dealers.
