Description

Codling Moth is probably the most important pest of apples worldwide and an important pest of pears, quinces and walnuts. It may also attack other Prunus species including peaches. Larvae bore into fruits, carving galleries inside. Damage may go unnoticed in the earlier part of the season because attack causes the young fruit to drop. There are usually 1 to 2 generations (egg to adult) in the UK depending on climate.

For use with Delta style insect monitoring traps to catch with flying insect pest species such as moths and midges. Suitablefor traps with a floor area 20 x 21 cm. Constructed of laminated cardboard for added waterproofness. Uses a special insect catching glue suitable for both indoor and outdoor use and in dusty environments.
