Fruit Fly (Bactrocera dorsalis) is a highly destructive pest affecting a wide range of fruit crops such as mango, guava, citrus, papaya, peach, and many more. Female flies lay eggs inside the soft fruit skin, and the larvae (maggots) feed on the fruit pulp, causing internal rotting and premature fruit drop.
