How to use this universal pheromone trap?

This so-called "Funnel Trap" pheromone trap is used to capture pests (on apple trees, citrus, pine, plum trees ...). The principle is simple: thanks to the small basket located above the trap, into which you insert a pheromone (depending on the pest to be captured), this pheromone will attract the pest inside the trap and eliminate it!

The pheromone reproduces the female’s scent, so the irresistibly attracted male is trapped. It is therefore essential to install it only during the insects’ breeding period; otherwise it is useless.
