Using a powerful pheromone lure, the trap attracts and captures male moths, breaking the breeding cycle before they can harm your crops. Ideal for apple trees, pear trees, and orchard care, this trap supports a healthier harvest and helps maintain high-quality fruit throughout the growing season. One trap can monitor up to five average-sized trees within a range of 15 metres (50 feet). Optimal timing: Codling moths typically fly and mate on warm nights from late May to the end of July. Early placement: In sheltered gardens or warmer springs, consider hanging the trap in early May. Key indicator: If in doubt, hang the trap when the petals on your fruit trees begin to fall. If you catch more than 15 moths in a week, this indicates a high infestation level: Apply a suitable treatment a week after noticing increased activity. If another 15 or more moths are caught, repeat the treatment. Remove the trap by early September. Dispose of the lure and sticky insert. Clean the trap and store it for future use. Refill kits are available to reuse the trap in the following season. Benefits of the Codling Moth Trap: Reduces moth populations, minimising fruit damage. Clean and reuse for multiple seasons.
