Get rid of Japanese beetles without poison chemicals or sprays!

What happens here

Use the provided green twist tie (bread tie) by threading it through the top holes of the assembled yellow plastic housing. Securely tie it to a branch of a nearby tree or any other appropriate structure. The crucial step is to place the trap downwind from your fruit trees or garden plants. This allows the scent to be carried away from your plants, luring beetles towards the trap and away from your crops.

Goal: Hang the assembled trap from a tree branch or suitable support, ensuring it is downwind from the plants you want to protect.

What they say

Hide

hang it up and then we'll give you the results here we're gonna put the camera on and do a little time-lapse because there are thousand and thousands of Japanese beetles on this tree in the scent packet on the other one got rained on so they're not really luring in there they're still going in but not like they're gonna go in this one let's hang it up just as simple the bread tie is a long bread dial you take it and you hang it out here on the limb again you want it to be downwind from where the beetles are so there's another tree over here this is going to lure the beetles from this tree and the beetles that are already in this tree that we're working on we'll put this guy up here and already they're beetles everywhere man they're flying around here they'll go in there okay so what happens is the beetles go to the edge of this plastic I'll get you close up real quick here's how this thing works and you see it's already working the beetles go to the scent and then they bump into this plastic right here and they fall down in the bag and we're all ready we're probably going on there went one so within a couple hours here this bag will almost be full it'll probably be up to right there we'll probably come back and revisit this but you can see what's going on here they
