MASS CAPTURES

In accordance with the Commission Implementing (EU) Regulation 2016/548 from the European Commission, install 1 trap per tree and up to a maximum of 100 traps per hectare.  For example, for mass captures between 20 and 100 traps should be installed per hectare, according to location and uniformity of the plots.
