Success Tips for Your Cucumber Trap
-
Ideal Placement: Hang the trap 3–5 feet above the ground, preferably in a shaded area near the crop. Avoid placing it in direct, scorching sunlight to extend the life of the pheromone lure.
-
Early Installation: Don’t wait for the flies to appear! Install the traps at the flowering stage to prevent the very first generation of flies from stinging your young fruit.
-
Regular Monitoring: Check the trap weekly to remove captured flies and ensure the lure is still in place.
-
Height Matters: As your vines grow and climb, adjust the height of the trap to stay level with the fruit-bearing zone of the plant.
