Place traps soon after bud break in early spring. In extremely hot areas rotate trap to north side of tree in hotter months. In back yard plantings place at least two traps. In commercial orchards of 50 acres or less use a minimum of two traps per block. In orchards larger than 50 acres, use an average of one trap per 10 acres provided conditions are uniform.
Space traps evenly unless the orchard has areas differing in spacing, age, tree size or culture.
Place more traps along borders subject to migration from an outside source. Traps should be serviced at least twice per week or more often during peak emergence of insects. Record trap data and remove insects. Replace trap bottoms that become excessively dirty. Further information and local recommendations may be obtained from your crop consultant, Cooperative Extension Service, or a BioLure dealer.
