Fruition Garden Fruit Fly Trap

The Fruition Garden Fruit Fly Trap is for home gardeners in Victoria to monitor and manage fruit fly populations. It is specifically designed to attract and trap a wide range of pest fruit flies in the home garden using a unique, patented combination of trap shape, colour, and attractant lures. It is the only product to attract and trap egg-laying female fruit flies.

What are the main pest species of fruit fly that Fruition Garden Fruit Fly Traps attract;

Queensland fruit fly (QFF;Bactrocera tryoni)
Lesser Queensland fruit fly (B. neohumeralis)
Jarvis’ fruit fly (B. jarvisi)
Cucumber fly (B. cucumis)
Mediterranean fruit fly (Medfly; C. capitata).

One part of the lure system is designed to attract egg-laying female fruit flies to the trap. The second lure is a protein bait that attracts immature male and female fruit flies to the trap, removing them from the garden before they have the opportunity to mate and lay eggs.

The design of the Fruition Garden Fruit Fly Trap is based on the Fruition Nova Trap, which is widely used in commercial fruit and vegetable crops to manage fruit fly populations and reduce crop damage. Fruition Garden Fruit Fly Lures uses naturally occurring ingredients. The Fruition Garden Fruit Fly cages are made from recycled plastic and are recyclable. Fruition Fruit Fly Traps are non-toxic and pesticide-free

Important tips for using Fruition Garden Fruit Fly Traps;

Trap placement in fruit trees

Traps should be placed in the trees to be protected before the fruit becomes attractive to fruit flies. This is when the fruit is hard and green, around walnut size.
Use one trap per tree for trees up to 3 m in height, and two traps per tree for larger trees.
Hang the traps at around 1.5–2.0 metres above the ground on the northern side of the tree in the outer part of the canopy so that the trap is visible but not exposed to constant sunlight.
For trees greater than 3 m in height, hang a second trap on the southern side of the tree.

Trap placement in vegetable crops

Traps should be secured to tomato stakes or similar rigid supports at a height just above the crop canopy and before the crop becomes attractive to fruit flies. This is as soon as the fruit/vegetable forms.
Use one trap per 10 m x 10 m area.

Fruition Garden Fruit Fly Traps last for up to 12 weeks. However, traps should be replaced earlier if the sticky surfaces are covered by fruit flies or foreign objects, or the sachets are missing or the trap itself is damaged.

Pack Contents: The pack contains two Fruition Garden Fruit Fly Traps, ready to assemble (4 x Recyclable Fruition, cage components, 2 x Fruition yellow sticky discs, with protective paper covering, 2 x blue Fruition gel lure sachets, 2 x brown Fruition Natflav protein bait sachets & 2 x ties for attaching trap to tree or trap support)

Directions Of Use

Trap Assembly;

Lay out the components for assembling one trap on a stable, flat surface.
The components include;
- 2 x Recyclable Fruition cage components
- 1 x Fruition yellow sticky disc with protective paper covering
- 1 x blue Fruition gel lure sachet
- 1 x brown Fruition Natflav protein bait sachet
- 1 x tie for attaching trap to tree or trap support.
Peel the protective paper layer off one side of the disc, then place the disc, sticky side down, into one half of the trap cage, applying gentle pressure to ensure that the disc is resting on the supporting lugs on the sides of the trap cage (gloves can be useful to avoid getting adhesive on fingers).
Use scissors to cut the corner of the sachets containing the Fruition gel lure and the Fruition Natflav protein bait.
Place the sachets with the cut corner upwards in the chamber at the top of the trap.
Peel the protective paper off the other side of the yellow disc. Avoid contact with the adhesive surface of the trap. The adhesive on the traps is non-toxic. Application of vegetable oil to any surface which has picked up any adhesive (eg, gloves, scissors, etc) will remove the sticky deposit.
Place one half of the trap over the other half and push down to snap shut.
Use the tie provided to attach the trap securely to a branch in the tree to be protected, or to a firm support in the vegetable patch to be protected.

Trap placement in fruit trees

Traps should be placed in the trees to be protected before the fruit becomes attractive to fruit flies. This is when the fruit is hard and green, around walnut size.
Use one trap per tree for trees up to 3 m in height, and two traps per tree for larger trees.

Tips For Use

General Tips:

It is important to begin fruit fly control early in the season when fruit is at the ‘hard-green’ stage, around the size of a walnut.
In the home garden situation, this is especially important because there is usually a wide range of different fruit and vegetables available from early spring in which fruit flies can breed and establish for the summer.
If control is not started early, populations will grow and cause problems later in the season.

Use Tips:

Fruition Garden Fruit Fly Traps are effective for up to 12 weeks.
Fruition Garden Fruit Fly Traps should be deployed before fruit becomes attractive to fruit flies, generally when the fruit is hard and green before it begins to ripen.
Use one trap per tree for trees up to 3 m in height and two traps per tree for larger trees.
In fruit trees, hang traps at a height of 1.5-2 m above ground.
For trees up to 3 m in height, hang the trap on the northern side of the tree in the outer part of the canopy where the trap is visible but not exposed to constant sunlight. In addition, for trees greater than 3 m in height, hang a second trap on the southern side of the tree.
In vegetable crops, secure the trap to a tomato stake or similar rigid support at a height just above the canopy of the crop. Use one trap per 10 m x 10 m area.
Replace the trap if the disc becomes densely covered in fruit flies or the lure sachets have been opened for more than 12 weeks.
Avoid contact with the adhesive surface of the trap. The adhesive is non-toxic and can be removed from skin using vegetable oil.
Disassemble used traps at the end of the season and dispose of the components through normal domestic waste and recycling collections.
