Apple Maggot Lures

Apple Maggots are a type of fruit fly that attack apples, blueberries, hawthorn, plums, pears and cherries. They cause extensive fruit damage that renders fruit useless. The fly is smaller than a housefly and appears throughout the summer. Most fruits are attacked by flies that lay their eggs during late spring to early summer.

The SpringStar Apple Maggot lure is a one-season, controlled-release lure system.  Flies are attracted by the lures and come to a sticky demise on the juicy-looking apple sphere.  Hang traps 1 to 2 weeks before bud break. Lures last for about 20 weeks, or one season.
