  • Provanto Boltac Greasebands offer a simple, effective, and chemical-free solution for protecting fruit and ornamental trees from crawling insect pests. Designed as a physical pest barrier, these greasebands work by trapping and immobilising insects such as winter moth caterpillars, earwigs, and ants before they can climb tree trunks and cause damage to buds, leaves, or fruit.
  • These bands are easy to install, providing season-long protection, especially against winter moths whose caterpillars can severely affect fruit yields and foliage in spring. Suitable for use in both domestic gardens and larger orchards, Provanto Boltac Greasebands are an environmentally responsible choice for pest control.
  • Key Features:
  • Ready-to-Use Pest Barrier:
    Protects trees from pests such as winter moths, ants, and earwigs by trapping them as they try to ascend the trunk.
  • Chemical-Free Control:
    Provides non-toxic, pesticide-free protection, ideal for organic gardening and reducing chemical use in sensitive environments.
  • Effective Against Winter Moth Caterpillars:
    Prevents female moths, which are wingless, from climbing trees to lay eggs—thereby stopping spring infestations before they start.
  • Versatile Use:
    Ideal for fruit trees (e.g., apple, pear, cherry) as well as ornamental trees and shrubs.
  • Weather Resistant:
    Designed to remain effective in varied weather conditions throughout the autumn and winter months.
  • Easy Application:
    Supplied as a band with adhesive grease for quick and clean installation around tree trunks and supporting structures.
  • Boxed Weight:

  • 100g

  • Typical Applications:
  • Apply in autumn to prevent winter moths from laying eggs.
  • Effective throughout winter and early spring.
  • Suitable for:
  • Apple and pear trees
  • Ornamental shrubs
  • Garden and allotment fruit trees
  • Greenhouse frames (to prevent ant ingress)
  • Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
  • Q1: How do Provanto Greasebands work?
    A1: They act as a physical trap—insects attempting to climb the tree become stuck in the sticky band, preventing them from reaching leaves or fruit.
  • Q2: When should I apply greasebands?
    A2: Apply in early autumn (typically October) to block winter moths before they begin laying eggs. Leave in place through winter into early spring.
  • Q3: Are they safe for use around pets and children?
    A3: Yes. The grease is non-toxic, and the bands are a physical barrier only, with no harmful chemicals.
  • Q4: How long does one application last?
    A4: Greasebands remain effective for several months—typically the entire winter season. Check periodically to ensure they remain intact and sticky.
  • Q5: Do they work for all tree types?
    A5: They are suitable for most fruit-bearing and ornamental trees where crawling insect pests are a concern.
  • Warranty Information:
  • The Provanto Boltac Greasebands are a consumable product and do not come with a manufacturer’s warranty. However, they are guaranteed to perform when used as directed. For product concerns or questions, users can contact Provanto customer service directly.
  • Summary:
  • Provanto Boltac Greasebands are a trusted, mess-free solution for preventing damage caused by crawling pests such as winter moth caterpillars, ants, and earwigs. Easy to apply, non-toxic, and long-lasting, they offer reliable tree protection through the winter season, making them a valuable addition to any gardener’s pest control toolkit.
