Dear Bear, Thank you for writing. Our Japanese Beetle Catch Can with Bait (#05-268) contains a lure that's specific to Japanese beetles. These pests have shiny, metallic-green bodies and copper-colored wing covers. Unless you have this kind of beetle, the Catch Can will probably not work. We appreciate your interest, nonetheless! Thanks for making Gardener's Supply your source for gardening products and information. Please let us know if we can help you with anything else. Sincerely, Darcy Customer Service

I have not seen it kill any beetles, nor seen any dead ones around it, so I'm not sure. It does make quite a noticeable zap noise. I think they all do depending on the size of the bug.

It will def work on stink bugs. I've used it many times on cockroaches and those are about as strong as they come.

I do not think this will work on the bugs you listed. It does a great job on grubs, I used this early this season and no grubs and no animals digging up yard trying to get grubs. There are some products that specify which bugs it kills, you might try Spectacid it works for fleas, crickets, earwigs and ants. Read packaging as this works on many other bugs. Flys are harder to kill off as so quick to give birth, maybe some flying insect killer. I hope this helps and this product works great at our home.

My gut feel is no.. because the insecticide is absorbed and kills insects eating the bark and leaves, it's also going to be in the flowers and fruit.. Just to be sure I went out to look at the label.. it very clearly says "not for trees raised for food".. If you have fruit tress with problems, topical sprays before the fruit set are the only way.. or buy lady bugs and preying mantis and release in the spring.

Yes, it will work on blueberry maggot, which is a closely related species. I have found that using a very thin coat of tangletrap eliminates the catching of most larger insects and small birds which can happen when there's too much sticky.

I have applied this product to my fruit & nut trees, and I haven't had any issues. Follow instructions carefully.

I've never tried it on fruit trees, however it shouldn't harm your trees if you keep it around the roots and lower trunk. I would not spray it on the leaves or fruit as it may be residual and "pollute the fruit" as far as eating it. Good Luck, hope this may help you decide.

I can't say for sure. IF you have allowed the boards to remain outside for some time it's possible that some wood-boring beetles got it. If so, I don't THINK that "timbor" would help with the original infestation but MIGHT keep out new bugs. However, those pesky beetles are pretty hardy. I suggest you get in touch with a commercial control business OR the local county agent who will advise on this possible problem.

It should work for blackberries. The juice is collected in the second chamber and the pulp of the fruit and the seeds shouldStill be up in the top chamber. You could always line the top chamber with cheesecloth if it looks like the seeds will get into the juice. I love my steam juicer. I've made two batches of sole juice and with the pulp made apple butter. Delicious!

I'm sorry I don't know for sure. I did read on one web site that it did work but that is a vary invasive bug. I would highly recommend either contacting Bayer through their web site or checking the Arbor Socitey web site or your local cooperative extension. This product has been excellent in keeping aphids and other bugs off my trees. It does work for the full 12 months.

I don't know if it will work or not with blackberries; best will be to call Wilson. Nothing plugs into the phone but the phone have to be in the vicinity of couple of feet to work.

I haven't had black spot issue. But it did work well on a yellowing problem I had with the leaves. It might well be worth a try.

These things worked pretty good for me last year on my fruit trees. They are sticky but I don't believe sticky enough to give any birds problems , even humming birds. Bugs don't need much sticky power catch them..RBC

I am a licensed pest control operator. If you used Tim-Bor to treat for a beetle infestation (usually little pencil-lead sized exit holes in the wood), then what you might be seeing is the frass (not sawdust) coming out of the exit holes. This will happen even with a dead beetle infestation, killing the beetle doesn't make the frass disappear. To be sure, put the wood on a clean surface, free of vibrations, for a week. If no more frass comes out, they are dead. If more frass came out, without ANY moving of the wood, well, repeat the treatment. Tim-Bor is an excellent, "tried and true", product. Be sure to follow the label exactly, if you do, it will do the job. Good luck, shouldn't be a problem.

Yes it will work on pears. It works on just about anything. It's actually a very good product. I really like the one I have.

Hi Charlotte, I'm sorry I can't help you. I purchased it specifically for my peach trees. I'm sure if you Google, you should be able to find out?
