Brought this to trap box tree moths. White with a brown boarder. They lay eggs on any sort of privet hedges and the larvae/caterpillars, which are green with a dark stripe, eat the foliage/leaves of the privet hedges and basically strip them completely down to the roots if left untreated. Your hedges will start to look bare, with a trail of webbing across them. Bug treatment that kills caterpillars works on the box tree caterpillars, but not on the moths. That is when I researched moth traps and discovered this box tree moth trap. It is brilliant. I received it yesterday 16th July 2021, in the afternoon and following the easy instructions, I assembled it and hung it from a hook on my front porch, which is right by the hedges in question. This morning 17th July 2021 not even 24 hours later, the trap has 9 box tree moths inside it already. I was sceptical until this point that it would work, but it clearly does and I highly recommend it if you have this moth problem.
