moth traps
 
Can anyone tell me what is in the bottles that hang off fruit trees to deter the moths that cause the leaf curle etc? Saw them in a villa we stayed in and the fruit trees were in lovely condition (unlike my orange and lemon trees). All help gratefully received!

Water, seen them hanging around villas as well to deter flies and mozies, they see an enlarged image of themselves and skoot.
