Directions for Optimal Results

1. ASSEMBLY: Assemble the trap according to the instructions provided on the packaging.
2. BAIT PLACEMENT: Insert both types of baits (floral and pheromone) into their designated compartments. These baits are designed for a full season.
3. HANGING: Hang the trap at a height of about 1 metre (3 feet) from the ground, in a sunny location.
4. LOCATION: Place the trap approximately 3 m (10 ft) from the plants most vulnerable to attacks, such as roses, grapevines, raspberries, and fruit trees. It can also be placed near compost areas or leaf piles where beetles like to lay their eggs.
5. MAINTENANCE: Empty the trap regularly to maintain its effectiveness. Replace the baits the following season.
