The Gardening Naturally Raspberry Beetle Trap is an essential tool for home gardeners and allotment owners looking to protect their raspberries, blackberries, and loganberries from the destructive Byturus tomentosus. By using a specialized floral attractant, this trap intercepts adult beetles before they can damage developing fruit or lay eggs. While it is highly effective at reducing pest populations, users should note that consistent seasonal monitoring is required to ensure full coverage during the entire flowering period.

Place the traps 4-6 weeks before the first flowers appear on your plants, which is usually between April and July.
One lure lasts six weeks. For early-fruiting crops, one is usually enough, but for autumn-fruiting varieties, you will need two.
The attractant is specifically formulated for Raspberry Beetles, though you should always monitor for non-target insect activity.
Yes, unopened lures remain effective for up to two years if stored in a cool, dry place.
The trap should be positioned 1 to 1.5 metres above the ground to be most effective.
Yes, it is a non-toxic method of pest control that does not involve spraying chemicals on your fruit.
Check if the trap is installed at the correct height (1-1.5m) or if the flowering season has already passed.
Replace the lure if it has been in the trap for more than six weeks or if it was exposed to extreme heat.
Secure the trap housing more firmly to a sturdy bamboo cane or post using garden ties.
To set up your trap, insert the refill lure into your existing funnel trap housing according to the manufacturer's instructions. Position the trap in a sunny, open spot near your berry canes but away from strong winds if possible. Compatibility is limited to funnel-style traps designed for this attractant.
Care instructions are straightforward: inspect the trap weekly to monitor capture counts and ensure the trap has not been dislodged by weather. If the trap becomes clogged with debris or dead insects, clear it gently to maintain airflow. Store any unused, unopened lures in their original packaging in a cool, dark, and dry area, such as a garden shed cabinet or a garage shelf, to preserve their effectiveness for up to two years.
