Codling Moth Trap System
Recommendations for the use of Laspeyresia pomonella Pheromone Trapping System
Species Name: Laspeyresia (Cydia) pomonella (Family: Tortricidae) Codling Moth.
Probably the most important pest of apples worldwide and also an important pest of pears, quinces and walnuts. Larvae bore into the fruits carving galleries inside. Damage may go unnoticed in the earlier part of the season because attack causes drop of young fruitlets.
Trapping Season: The traps should be placed in the orchard before the first moths normally appear and maintained until the end of the season. This is normally from April to early October. It should be noted that the exact time of insect emergence will vary with location and seasonal variation.
