Why Box Moth Control Is Essential

Box tree moths have become a serious threat to box plants throughout Europe and the UK. Left unchecked, their caterpillars can completely defoliate prized box hedges and topiary within days. The Agralan Boxmoth Pheromone Funnel Trap provides a crucial first line of defense in your integrated pest management strategy.

For complete protection, combine trapping with regular monitoring and, when necessary, appropriate biological controls. Start your defense early in the season for maximum effectiveness.
