Product Description

SpringStar S510 Apple Maggot Trap With 3 Lures Apple Maggots are a type of fruit fly that attack Apples, blueberries, hawthorn, plums, pears and cherries. They cause extensive fruit damage that renders fruit useless. The fly is smaller than a housefly and appears throughout the summer. Most fruits are attacked by flies that lay their eggs during late spring to early summer. The SpringStar Apple Maggot trap and lure set have proved effective at reducing apple maggot damage. Flies are attracted by the lures and come to a sticky demise on the juicy-looking apple sphere. The reusable trap includes our one-season, controlled-release lure system. Place traps in trees 1 or 2 weeks before bud break in early spring, and leave out until harvest time.

4.0 out of 5 stars Apple Maggot fruit fly traps that work, June 26, 2010

These things work like crazy. Take a look at the picture I posted. That trap is about ten days old. They would get five stars if one trap would protect a whole tree in western Washington. They can be over whelmed by the sheer number of the fruit flies if you live in a western Washington area where you are the only person actually trapping. I used three on one tree and got a real improvement in fruit loss.

This review is from: Springstar Apple Maggot Trap With 3 Lures S510 (Lawn & Patio)

1) difficult to apply the glue, as the orb spins and the applicator is a plastic spatula. Used a screw in the bottom of the red orb to steady the application. Minor improvement.
2) It rains in the NW and all of the glue washed away, except for the bottom part of the orb.
3) my neighbor purchased a different product, easy application and the glue is still on the plastic apple!
4) definitely a poorly designed product for aplication and the glue doesn't stay on the apple, therefore save you money.
