Important Step Against Brown Skunk Pest in Sakarya

Sakarya Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Yusuf Alemdar announced some time ago that an important study was being carried out to prevent the brown skunk infestation, which is one of the biggest problems of agriculture and daily life in Türkiye.

Local production: 'Pheromone trap'

The expected result of the study carried out by scientists at Sakarya University Technopolis and supported by President Alemdar has been achieved.

As a result of intensive work, SAU scientists completed the study, which they paused in 2018, and successfully produced a "pheromone trap" that will prevent skunk invasion.
