User's notes

Appatently successful Codling Moth control. Adult moths were attracted by a commercially available Codling Moth pheromone and caught on sticky paper over a period of about 4 weeks. The moths were not attracted to my nearby UV light at night during this period, although I have attracted one since (1/12/18).
