Protect valuable fruit trees from damaging peach tree borers with this easy-to-use pheromone trap system. Designed to attract and capture adult male moths, these traps help monitor pest activity and reduce reproduction before larvae can tunnel into trunks and roots.
Ideal for peaches, plums, cherries, apricots, apples, and other susceptible trees, this monitoring tool supports early detection so you can take action before serious damage occurs. Each lure lasts up to 8 weeks and provides reliable season-long monitoring during peak moth activity.
The trap uses a species-specific pheromone lure that mimics the scent of female moths, drawing in males and interrupting the breeding cycle without spraying chemicals directly on your trees.
