WitaTrap® Complete Horse Chestnut Leaf Miner Moth Trap Set

Biological attractant trap (pheromone trap) for the management of pest infestation of your cultivars.

One trap set consisting of:
- 1 trap body (WitaTrap® Delta Super Trap),
- 2 adhesive bases (separately packaged!),
- 2 pheromone capsules (separately packaged!),
- 1 suspension wire for mounting
- detailed instructions for use.

Biology of the pest:
Pest: horse chestnut leaf miner moth
Scientific name: Cameraria ohridella
Infests: chestnut trees, mainly the leaves of the white-flowering horse chestnut

Main symptoms of infestation:

  • When the buds emerge in mid-May, the first light brown spots appear on leaves. These spots rapidly become enlarged

 Main flight periods of generations: late April to August (theoretically, this can continue to October)

Use:
Assemble the trap and hang it using the suspension wire provided from a branch or post positioned near the tree. (See other side for assembly instructions)

Depending on size, it is advisable to use 1 - 3 traps per tree (as a rule of thumb, use one trap for each 30 cm trunk circumference)
Hang traps at eye level between the main wind direction and the tree. Make sure the trap entrances are not blocked by twigs and leaves. 

Each trap should be checked at regular intervals of 2 - 3 days. Each time a trap is checked, the insects sticking to the adhesive base should be removed using a suitable tool (e.g. twig or wooden scraper) to ensure that the full glue surface is revealed. If the base becomes very soiled, replace it or spray with a liquid glue, such as Soveurode special glue.
Replace the attractant capsule and the adhesive base if necessary roughly every 4 - 6 weeks.

*Traps should be put in place before the flight phase of the adults.

For more information on the insect pest and application, see the enclosed product description.
