VivaTrap! VT-106 Codling Moth And Oriental Fruit Moth Traps by VivaGrow
VivaTrap VT-106
Codling Moth and Oriental Fruit Moth attack these trees and other species:
Codling Moth (Cydia pomonella) larvae are typically the cause of 'wormy' fruit, doing damage by stinging flesh and boring into seed cavities. Oriental Fruit Moth (Grapholita molesta) larvae attack both fruit and young shoots & twigs, primarily feeding around the pit of the fruit. VivaTrap! Codling Moth & Oriental Fruit Moth Traps utilize an exclusive 3 component pheromone lure to attract both Male AND Female Codling Moths + Male Oriental Fruit Moths to a sticky surface where they cannot escape.
Codling Moths are formidable pests, affecting agricultural crops and fruits. There are 4-6 generations per year, climate dependent.
