The pine processionary moth is a devastating pest that threatens the health of your trees. This pheromone trapping kit, consisting of a trap and two pheromones, provides an effective and ecological method to capture males before they fertilize the females. Ideal for prolonged protection, this system significantly reduces infestations while preserving the ecosystem.
Caterpillars hatch in spring and form nests where they protect themselves. After their development, they descend in procession to bury themselves in the soil, where they transform into pupae. Adult moths then emerge to ensure reproduction.
This kit uses specific sexual pheromones to attract and capture male pine processionary moths. By reducing the number of males available to fertilize females, the trap limits egg-laying and, consequently, the proliferation of caterpillars. The effectiveness duration of a pheromone is 10 weeks, providing extended protection over several months.
For optimal effectiveness, it is recommended to place the trap about 2 meters high on the pine tree. Once the first pheromone is exhausted, the second can be used to maintain protection.
Place the first pheromone in the trap using gloves to avoid direct contact with the irritating hairs of the caterpillars.
Attach the trap about 2 meters high on the pine tree, following the instructions provided in the manual.
Regularly clean the trap to avoid the accumulation of dead moths and maintain its effectiveness.
After 10 weeks, replace the used pheromone with the second pheromone stored in the freezer.
Each pheromone has an effectiveness duration of 10 weeks. It is therefore recommended to place the second pheromone after the first one is exhausted to maintain continuous protection.
Yes, this kit is designed to be used on multiple pine trees. It is recommended to place 1 trap per tree, or 4 to 8 traps per hectare depending on the tree density. Make sure to follow the instructions for optimal effectiveness.
Pheromones should be stored in the freezer until use.
Yes, it is important to regularly clean the trap to avoid the accumulation of dead moths. This maintains its effectiveness and prevents unpleasant odors or hygiene issues.
