Chafer Beetle Trap and Refills

Chafer Grub larvae can cause serious damage to lawns, killing roots and causing yellowing of the turf, which can start to feel spongy underfoot. The Chafer Grubs tend to cause significant damage from Autumn to Spring by which time the larvae are becoming fully grown.
Predatory birds and mammals may cause secondary damage by digging up turf in their search for an easy meal consisting of the large white grubs.

The Chafer Beetles is the perfect way to tell whether Chafer Grubs are present. This trap will catch adult beetles and give an early warning of Chafer Grub activity and the lawn damage that is likely to follow. It will also help reduce the numbers of egg laying adults in the surrounding area. By monitoring the trap contents, more accurate applications of nematodes or other lawn treatments can be applied against Chafer Grub larvae.
The Chafer Beetle Trap is supplied with a powerful attractant which attracts adult Chafer Beetles to the trap. The beetles are also attracted by the vanes on the top of the trap. They fly into the vanes and drop down into the funnel trap beneath.
The trap can be re-used each year by adding a new attractant capsule.
The trap should be placed in lawn areas in May and hung 25 - 50cm above ground level.
One trap will cover up to 2000sq m or half an acre. The attractant will remain active for 6 weeks.
We use an attractant lure instead of pheromone as the attractant attracts male and female chafer beetles whereas the pheromone attracts only male chafer beetles.
