Brian, If you have a significant number of trees to monitor, I would recommend the use of the trece Delta VI trap with liners and the CM-DA codling moth lure. The lures are good for about 8 wweks and the traps are reusable. I have some that I have used for 4 seasons. Much less expensive that cardboard ones over th elong haul. You contact Jim Hansel at Great Lakes IPM at 800-235-0285 or at http://www.greatlakesipm.com.

In some of the research information I've been finding on-line, studies have shown that the combination of Pear Ester (PE) and Acetic Acid (AA), along with a clear insect trap, will significantly increase your ability to capture/monitor Codling Moth activity in the orchard. Where can one buy this fabulous combination? Every time I search for Pear Ester or clear insect trap, I get taken to more research articles. A link to where this can be purchased will be outstanding. Your comments on how well (or not) this combination worked for you would be appreciated as well.
