Pheromone trap pea damager

NORM 1 trap 2-3 m per pea bed. In a larger field, put traps around at intervals of about 20 m, and additionally a few in the middle. Catching out pea moth butterflies with pheromone traps is well suited for home gardens, where it is not recommended to use or use as little insecticides as possible. Caterpillars of the pea weevil are approx. 6mm long white or yellow worms with dark heads. They cause worming of peas in July-August. USAGE By using the pea weevil pheromone trap, you can detect the presence of this pest in your garden and estimate its population using traps to decide whether chemical control is necessary. By using a larger number of traps, you can reduce the number of this pest in the garden by catching the pea moth butterflies (the so-called mass capture method). If the catches are less than 5-10 butterflies per day, it is recommended not to spray! With this, you save nature and save unnecessary expenses on insecticide. In the pheromone trap, there is a small plastic house, where the inner base with non-drying glue and the capsule impregnated with pheromone are placed. The trap attracts the butterflies to the house, where they get stuck to the glue base and die. NB! The glue used on the bottoms is very sticky and cannot be washed off with water. You can use ordinary or white spirit to clean your hands; cooking oil etc. is less effective. Assembling the trap The ends of the bottom face of the trap are broken up. The glue bases are pulled apart and one glue base is placed with the glue side up on the bottom of the trap. A rubber pheromone capsule is placed in the center of the glue base. Fasteners are placed through the holes, with the help of which the trap is attached to the branch. Store the spare capsule in a closed package in a cool place. PACKAGING 1 plastic trap, 2 pheromone capsules, 2 glued adhesive bases, 2 fasteners. HERNEMÄHKUR The pea pods are gray or brown, small butterflies with yellow markings on the sides, wingspan 12-16 mm. The pea moth begins to fly during the flowering period of the pea (June/July). Female butterflies lay their larvae on pea pods, from which caterpillars hatch, which cause the so-called worming of peas. The caterpillars are white or yellow with dark heads and about 6 mm long. The caterpillars roam the plant before entering the pod, where they feed for up to a month. The caterpillars emerge from the pod by constantly eating it and remain in cocoons to overwinter in the soil. Caterpillars are most active in July-August./ Nb!
