Refill pack to be used with existing traps. Pack contains 3 lures to give a total of 18 weeks monitoring. This single pack is effective for a period long enough to cover both generations.


Pack contains: 3 pheromone lures, 3 sticky inserts.

Suitable for use in any crop where Summer Fruit Tortrix (Adoxophyes orana) is a potential pest.

The trap is designed to monitor adult moth activity which then allows improved application timing of plant protection products. The summer fruit tortrix moth monitoring trap should be setup from the beginning of May until September to cover the moth flying period. Once setup, the trap should be checked at least once or twice a week and the number of caught adults recorded. Monitoring for the presence of Summer Fruit tortrix should also include scouting for rolled leaves as a result of caterpillar activity.

The trap should be hung from a branch within the crop at head height to allow easy access.

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.

This is a refill only product.
