I missed that bit but perhaps you could watch it again on TV on Demand.Also what about using a codling moth trap - should be available from garden centres etc.

Just checked the recipe on Tv Demand - it was on Close-up last night. She said 1 tbsp molasses, 1 tbsp white vinegar and fill the container up with water. (looked like it was a measuring jug so would hold 500 mls)
