Pheromones against plum and prune worms - 58010-

available icon In stock

The codling moth is a lepidopteran (butterfly) whose larva (worm) penetrates the fruit it feeds on, developing and causing serious damage. The principle is to use the specific pheromones of the female codling moth to attract the male, trap him and prevent mating and egg-laying, where the larvae (worms) will hatch. Pheromones are used with a trap. Place the traps when the fruit has a diameter of about 1 cm.
Use 1 to 2 traps per tree.
PACKAGING: Box with 2 pheromone capsules. Each capsule is packaged in an airtight bag. Pheromone sachets can be stored in the cold (up to 3 years in the refrigerator - up to 5 years in the freezer). Each pheromone capsule is used immediately after opening the bag. It should be placed in the small capsule container of the pheromone trap. The trap and capsule must be placed in the tree to be protected.

The codling moth (Grapholita funebrana) is a butterfly whose larva (worm) penetrates the fruit in spring, where it develops until autumn, causing significant damage: rot, eaten pulp, and fruit drop. Pheromone treatment is a 100% eco-friendly solution for eliminating this harmful insect. The principle is to mimic the volatile substances emitted by female insects (female pheromone) in order to enhance their recognition and sexual attraction to males. The males are attracted, trapped, and eliminated. This prevents mating, reproduction, and therefore egg-laying. Pheromones are used with a trap.
