Plum
Cherry

English Walnut
Codling Moth (Cydia pomonella) larvae are typically the cause of 'wormy' fruit, doing damage by stinging the flesh and boring into the seed cavity. There are 2-4 generations per year, depending on climate.
Oriental Fruit Moth (Grapholita molesta) larvae attack both fruit and young shoots & twigs, killing the tip of the shoots and causing strikes or flagging. Larvae typically enter fruit near the stem and immediately bore to the center, feeding around the pit. There are 5-6 generations per year, depending on climate.
VivaTrap! Codling Moth & Oriental Fruit Moth Traps utilize a strong wet glue adhesive to retain moths attracted to the dual pheromone lure.
Includes: 1x reusable delta trap frame, 6x extra-sticky wet glue trap inserts & 3x lures (180 day coverage)
Instructions: Hang traps in trees at 5-6' height, with care to avoid wind and rain as possible. Use 1 trap for each smaller tree, or 2 for larger trees. Deploy traps in early April, and again in August for best results. Lure lasts for approximately 8 weeks.
