How to Use
The trap is designed to monitor adult moth activity which then allows improved application timing of plant protection products. The light brown apple moth trap should be setup from March through to August to cover the moth flying period. In the UK, light brown apple moth have 2 generations per year depending on location and weather.
The trap should be placed within the canopy at either the height of the crop for smaller crops or at head height for larger crops, out of direct sunlight.
Use 1 trap per 2 hectares of uniform crops. In ununiform crops (geography, variety, age etc.) higher density may be advised.
Traps should be checked at least once or twice a week and number of trapped moths recorded. After recording trapped numbers during scouting, trapped moths should be removed from sticky insert to improve future catches and reduce chance of miscounting in following assessments.
Replace the lure and sticky insert after 6 weeks.
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.
