Double descent, bark camouflage Écopiège® band kit

Quick and easy to install. Speedy descent of caterpillars into the bag; perfect blockage using the putty, binding agent, and applicator.

Simple, reliable, and ecological solution to combat pine and oak processionary larvae:

The caterpillars descend trees annually as a procession to crawl into the earth, build cocoons, and subsequently transform into butterflies. With the Écopiège® rings, the caterpillars can no longer descend to the ground. They turn around the ring and eventually descend into the bag filled with light earth (peat or potting soil).

Please note: do not take any action if the caterpillars do not go down the tubes. They can stay in the rings for 15 days. Do not push them with a stick, which could result in a skin rash on you.
