Directions for Use
It is a violation of federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
Trap Assembly
1. Slide vanes together at the slots to form a cross.
2. Attach the twist tie by inserting about 4" through the holes in the top vane assembly as shown in the diagram and twist to secure the trap.
3. Attach one of the disposable collection bags to the vane assembly by gently sliding the holes in the bag over the cutout hooks on the lower end of the trap vanes.
Bait Placement
4. Remove the bait from its protective package. Peel the protective (marked "peel") from the SaferŪ Japanese Beetle Trap Lure.
5. Peel the paper from the adhesive strip on the back of the sex/floral lure (bait) and stick the bait onto the trap vane. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PEEL APART THE BAIT. Best results are obtained by attaching the bait to the lower third of the trap vane.
Trap Placement, Application Rate, and Use
1. Place traps as beetles emerge in mid-May to early June in Georgia and South Carolina; early June to mid-June in North Carolina and Tennessee; mid-June to early July in Kentucky, Delaware, Washington DC, Virginia and West Virginia; early July to mid-July in Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania and New Jersey; mid-July in New York, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Vermont and Maine.
2. Place traps on the generally upwind side of vegetable gardens, flower gardens, ornamental shrub plantings and other outside landscape plantings attacked by the beetles. Apply traps at the rate of one trap per 50 linear feet along two sides of plant perimeters. For example, if the site is 1 - 50 linear feet, place only one trap on each side of the two sides; if the site is 51 - 100 linear feet, place two traps on each of the two sides, etc. DO NOT enclose the treated sites with traps.
3. Hang traps from any suitable post or stand in sunny areas 3 to 5 feet above the ground.
4. Place traps at least 10 feet away from the plantings as they may attract beetles to the foliage if placed closer.
5. Replace bags when full. If trap catches decline and beetles are still present replace pheromone/floral dispensers. Remove traps from site when beetles are no longer present.
