Vitax Box Tree Moth Trap Refill, contains 2 lures. Vitax Box Tree Moth Trap consists of a trap with 2 pheromone lures to attract the male box tree moths, monitoring and helping control this serious pest. The lure attracts male moths which then drop through the funnel into the trap. Minor infestations may be adequately controlled by preventing males from mating with female moths. For severe infestations the monitoring trap provides warning of infestation allowing timely control measures to be introduced. The box tree moth is generally active from mid-April to October, peaking between mid-July to the end of September.
