Safer Brand Japanese Beetle Trap

For the best results, place the trap at least 10 feet away from the plants you want to protect. This ensures the beetles are drawn to the trap rather than being lured toward your garden.

This trap is specifically designed with a dual-action lure—combining food and sex attractants—that targets Japanese beetles. While it is highly effective for that species, it is not intended to catch beneficial pollinators or other garden insects.

The controlled release system is designed to keep the attractant effective for approximately 12 weeks. This typically covers the peak period of Japanese beetle activity during the summer months.

No, this specific model is designed as a single-use trap system. Once the bait life has expired and the bags are full, you will need to replace the unit for the following season.

The kit comes with everything you need to get started: one trap, two jumbo collection bags, two bait lures, and a 48-inch stand for optimal placement.

The trap works by using a dual-action lure to draw beetles away from your plants and into the collection bag. By capturing them, it effectively disrupts their mating cycle and prevents them from defoliating your garden.
