When to use:

Adults are present between April to October (climate dependent) so this is the optimum time to use the trap. There are several generations of this pest so the trap must be in place for the whole season.

How to use:

This refill is to be used with our box moth trap.

Add water to a depth of 3cm with a small dash of washing-up liquid into the bucket of the trap.

Open one sachet which includes one lure and remove the lure(we recommend using gloves). Remove the cap off the lure cage and place the pheromone lure inside. Refasten the cap.

Push the lure cage through the hole in the lid from above so that the cage effectively hangs below the lid.

Check the traps regularly, at least twice a week. Top up the liquid in the bucket to the 3cm depth as and when required. Lures should be changed every 5 weeks to achieve optimum results.

Storage for lures:

They will last for 1 year when unopened or freezing them will last 2 years.
