I was curious so I Googled it. Here's a link that mentions just that, an SVB trap. http://vegedge.umn.edu/vegpest/CUCS/vinebor.htm

"Most management options are limited to controlling the hatching larvae (first instars) before they enter the plant. Once the larvae invade the stem, little can be done except to scrape the larvae out of the stem and cover the stem with dirt to promote possible growth of new roots. If the main root and stem are injured, this tactic may allow the plant to recover and continue to grow. Growers and gardeners, however, can be more proactive by looking for the adult moth flying around their plants from mid-June through July. Growers can also monitor moth presence by placing pheromone traps near squash or pumpkins. Pheromone traps and lures (EZA 2,13/ZZA 99:1 or blend) attract male moths, and are available from several commercial suppliers (see list below)."
