Re: LIVE _ FROM SQUASHBORER LAND USA!!!


Chris,
I put about 6 jugs around the patch and it caught a bunch....since I still 
saw the darn moths till mid-August here in Rochester, MN....keep these jugs 
out all season ;-).
(Whoever says they have a "short" season is kidding you...do not let your 
guard down!)
Ok....look at my previous listing for the components to mix.
I take a plastic gallon milk carton and put a hole in it 3" x 5"...but high 
enough that the components do not leak out ;-)....I leave the top on the milk 
carton to help keep the rain out and try to face it away from the rain 
direction...ie...to the east.
They fly into the "sweetness" and drown.
Note: a great side effect is that I caught a zillion of those little 
strawberry and raspberry beetles that eat the berries.  Also it does not seem 
to bother the bees...
