Green Protect Box Tree Moth Pheromone Lure

The Green Protect Box Tree Moth Pheromone Lure is an effective and environmentally friendly solution for controlling the destructive box tree moth (Cydalima perspectalis) population. This innovative product uses a synthetic copy of the female moth's natural sex pheromone to disrupt the breeding cycle, providing targeted pest control without the use of harmful chemicals.

When used in conjunction with a compatible monitoring trap, the lure acts as a powerful attractant, specifically drawing in male box tree moths. By capturing the males, the mating process is interrupted. This leaves female moths unfertilised and incapable of laying viable eggs, thereby breaking the reproductive chain and preventing further infestations.

This method of control is ideal for protecting prized box (Buxus) plants, which are highly susceptible to defoliation and death from box tree caterpillar infestations. It is a crucial tool for gardeners, horticulturalists, and landscape professionals seeking to preserve the health and aesthetic value of box hedges, topiary, and standalone specimens.

Key Benefits

• Targeted Action: Specifically attracts only the male box tree moth, leaving beneficial insects unharmed.
• Non-Toxic: Provides pest control without spraying insecticides on plants.
• Supports Monitoring: Helps gauge the level and timing of moth activity in your garden, allowing for informed pest management decisions.
• Easy to Use: Simply place the lure inside the designated trap according to the instructions.

By implementing the Green Protect Pheromone Lure as part of your integrated pest management strategy, you can proactively protect your box plants from severe damage, ensuring they remain healthy and vibrant throughout the growing season.
