Leave the grease on the outside - sticky side out. Go about one foot up the tree trunk, put your grease band on, you might have to fold the ends over so it sticks. Cut yourself a couple of bits of the wire and twist it round to secure it and snip it off. All right, when you've got grease band on, the moths will kind of try and climb up here..
