Cotton Bollworm Moth (Helicoverpa armigera) Trap Refill

Ornamentals, Fruit, Vegetable, Combinable

Attracts male moths with species specific pheromone. Allows accurate identification of pest species. Monitoring allows easy determination of risk to crop and if further control actions are required.

Pack contains everything needed to monitor Cotton bollworm for up to 18 weeks. Once adult moths are attracted to the trap, they will fall down the funnel and drown in the water added to the base.


Pack contains: 1 re-usable Funnel trap, 3 pheromone lures.

Suitable for use in any crop where Cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera) is a potential pest.

The trap is designed to monitor adult moth activity which then allows improved application timing of plant protection products. The Cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera) should be setup during periods of expected migratory invasion. Although migration can occur year round, most activity is seen from June until September.

The trap should be hung from a pole just above the height of the crop.

Once setup, the trap should be checked once or twice a week 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 pheromone lures in a freezer.

Traps can be used over several years with the addition of fresh replacement pheromones.
