Description
Protect your trees from heavy feeding with this gypsy moth control system. Reduce caterpillar damage, keep your shade intact, and help stressed trees bounce back. Start early, track activity, and respond at the right time to cut defoliation through the peak season of spongy moth (Lymantria dispar) pressure.
Key Features
- Early intervention: Act before heavy chewing begins to limit leaf loss.
- Activity tracking: Monitor pressure so you know when to take the next step.
- Tree-focused use: Concentrate efforts where pests feed on trunks and canopies.
- Simple routine: Set up once, check weekly, and adjust as needed.
- Outdoor ready: Use around ornamentals, shade trees, and small woodlot edges.
Applications
Protect backyard maples, oaks, and other host trees in residential landscapes. Use in yards, along wooded borders, and in high-risk spots where caterpillars congregate. Start in early spring, then maintain checks through mid-summer for steady control.
Specifications
- Pest: Spongy moth (Lymantria dispar), also known as gypsy moth

Follow all label directions and local guidelines. Start before hatch when possible, inspect weekly, and combine with good tree care—watering during drought and post-feeding cleanup—to support recovery.
