It was not supplied! Useless. 1 STAR.UPDATE: I taped the lure to the top of the trap and tried that. It's trapped 20+ moths in 4 days and I've ordered 2 more; hopefully complete this time! This works very well. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars This works! *by P***A on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 30 September 2023* Our box hedging has been invaded by Box Moths (the moths have white wings edged in brown and female moths are brown). After doing lots of research on how to get rid of the blighters three main factors emerged - put the trap out (April to October to attract moths - you then know you have a problem), trim your hedging and spray the hedges (lots of products are available I used Top Buxus).This trap is very easy to assemble. The first day I used it we didn't catch any moths but from then on it we have caught moths every day. The first few days I caught approx. 40 moths and the trap keeps catching them. I went out last night to see loads of moths hovering round the trap.I will certainly continue to use this trap and will purchase another one for our back garden too.Top tip - fill the bottom of the trap with an inch or so of water and put a few drops of washing up liquid in. This breaks the surface tension of the water and makes the trap more successful at catching the moths. As each moth lays between 100 and 200 eggs this is work in progress but it appears to be working. We also hosed our hedge down which dislodged lots of eggs. Fingers crossed we can preserve our hedging. ### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars Plenty of caterpillars *by D***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 June 2024* I recently reviewed this product and said that whilst we had plenty of caterpillars, we had no moths in the trap after 6 weeks. Typically, as soon as soon as I sent in the review, today I found 3 moths in the trap. I guess there is a season for the moths to be about laying their eggs, I must have just missed it. However, I read that that the moth traps are just an indication of when eggs are being laid and that I should spray theBoxus in about two weeks time and closely inspect the hedging daily. Hope this helps. ## Frequently Bought Together - Vitax Ltd 5BTMT1 Box Tree Moth Trap - TOPBUXUS XenTari - Professional Dosage - Against Box Tree Moth Caterpillar - Biological - Safe for Bees and Birds - VITAX BUXUS Moth Trap Refill X2 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/174122296-vitax-box-tree-moth-trap-protects-buxus-box-hedge-200](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/174122296-vitax-box-tree-moth-trap-protects-buxus-box-hedge-200) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-02*
