Full details

FAQs

When is the best time to set up the trap?

The trap should be placed in your lawn during the month of May to coincide with the natural emergence of adult beetles.

How long does one lure last?

Each attractant lure remains active for approximately six weeks.

Do I need to buy a new trap every year?

No, the trap housing is reusable. You only need to purchase a fresh lure refill each season.

How high should the trap be off the ground?

For optimal results, position the trap 25 cm to 50 cm above the ground level.

Will this trap catch all types of beetles?

This trap is specifically designed for Chafer Beetles that cause lawn damage through their grubs.

What is the primary benefit of using this trap?

The main benefit is the ability to monitor pest activity so you can apply lawn treatments like nematodes with greater precision.

Troubleshooting

No beetles appearing in the trap

Verify the trap is at the correct height (25-50cm) and check if the lure is still within its six-week active window.

Birds are still digging in the lawn despite the trap

The trap is for monitoring and suppression, not total eradication. You may need to supplement with a nematode treatment if the beetle population is high.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Protects lawn integrity by stopping the larval cycle early
  • Covers a large 2000 square metre area per unit
  • Reusable housing reduces long-term waste and cost
  • Attracts both sexes of beetles for higher capture rates

Cons

  • Requires new lure refills every season
  • Limited to a six-week active monitoring window per lure
  • Must be carefully timed with the beetle's May emergence period

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the trap, assemble the housing and insert the attractant lure according to the provided instructions. Suspend the unit at a height of 25 cm to 50 cm above the lawn surface using a stake or stand. Because the attractant remains active for only six weeks, ensure the trap is installed at the start of the May emergence period. When the season ends, clean the housing with a mild soap solution, store it in a dry, cool place, and prepare to purchase a new attractant packet for the following year.
