Fragrance for catching raspberries in the berry orchard. 1 capsule for use in a raspberry trap.
Orders placed by Sunday evening will be shipped the following Tuesday.
Raspberry meadows (Byturus tomentosus) can cause great damage to raspberries and blackberries. The adult beetle overwinters in the soil and wakes up in April. It then feeds on leaves, buds and pollen. When the temperature rises to 12-15 degrees, it begins to lay eggs in the raspberry flowers. The larva hatches and feeds on the ripe berries. It hides inside the berry, which makes it difficult to detect before the berry is picked.
The trap has two ways of attracting raspberry flies:
1. The trap looks like a large raspberry flower with white crossed “wings”, and is designed to attract the raspberry weevil. When the raspberry weevil flies into the crossed white “wings”, they fall into a funnel and underneath it is a container of soapy water that prevents the raspberry weevil from getting out.
2. It contains a scent that attracts the raspberry moth. To ensure a good catch, the specific scent for raspberry moths should be added to a special container on top of the trap.
The trap comes with 1 capsule of fragrance and a special net to cover the funnel, so that bumblebees and bees do not fall down and get caught.
User manual
The trap should be hung 4-6 weeks before flowering (April-May). It should be hung 1-1.5 meters above the ground. Fill with water and a few drops of soap or washing-up liquid. Clean up around the trap so that it is clearly visible and easily accessible.
The raspberry leafhopper can also attack early autumn raspberries. Remember to buy extra fragrance for this period, so you have full good coverage.
One trap covers an area of up to 250 m 2 .
