Pheromone trap – horse chestnut leaf miners – 1 pc. Agrecol
Description
The pheromone trap from the Agrecol series Natura is an effective tool in the fight against the horse chestnut pest - the chestnut beetle (Cameraria ohridella ). It selectively attracts and catches only those insects that we want to get rid of, which is why it is safe for pollinators. The trap is covered with a sticky glue containing pheromonesthat attract harmful leafminer butterflies. The use of the trap contributes to reducing leaf damage caused by pest larvae. The special design of the trap prevents it from being polluted by falling leaves, which increases its effectiveness in the fight against the pest. Catching pests with a trap allows you to monitor their presence.
The trap does not contain any harmful chemicals, which makes it safe for the environment, people, pets and pollinating insects.

- small tree: 2 traps
