How It Works

The Vitax Plum Maggot Trap uses a natural pheromone lure to attract male moths. Once inside, the moths become trapped, interrupting the breeding cycle and reducing the chances of maggot infestations in your fruit.

How to Use the Plum Maggot Trap

1. Set up before pests appear – typically in late spring or when blossom starts to fall.
2. Hang the trap in a central location within your fruit tree, around 1.5m to 2m above ground level.
3. Replace the pheromone lure after 6 weeks or when full of trapped moths.
4. Use one trap per tree or one for every five small trees planted together.

💡 Tip: For maximum protection, use in conjunction with good pruning practices and seasonal pest monitoring.
