Description

Box moth caterpillars can cause significant damage to box hedges in a short amount of time. These pests feed on the leaves of box plants, leaving unsightly bare patches and if left unchecked, can even kill the plant.

Box moth caterpillars are the larvae of the box tree moth, these caterpillars hatch from eggs laid on the undersides of leaves and feed voraciously, stripping the plant of its foliage. The presence of webbing on the plant, along with chewed leaves, is a clear sign of an infestation.

Easy to identify, they hatch as green and yellow caterpillars with a black head, they mature and develop black and white stripes on their bodies.

Box moth nematodes offer a natural way to kill the caterpillars, these microscopic worms actively seek out and parasitise the caterpillars, stopping them from feeding and causing further damage

Contains 2 treatments for a 25 sq.m area
