Pack contains 4 lures to monitor box tree moth for up to 6 months.

How to use:
Suitable for use in any crop where box tree moth (Cydalima perspectalis) is a potential pest.

The trap is designed to monitor adult moth activity which then allows improved application timing of plant protection products. The box tree moth monitoring trap should be setup from April until September to cover the moth flying period.

The trap should be hung from a pole 1-2 metres above the ground.

Once setup, the trap should be checked at least every one or two weeks and the number of caught adults recorded. After recording trapped numbers during scouting, trapped moths should be removed from the base of the funnel to improve future catches and reduce chance of miscounting in following assessments.

Do not open foil sachet until you want to use the pheromone lure. Until use, store unopened sticky inserts and pheromone lures in a cool dry location.

Traps can be used over several years with the addition of fresh replacement pheromones (LINK TO REFILL PRODUCT PAGE).
