Pheromone Trap Counts, June 19, 2015

It appears that we are beginning to see the next generation of bollworm moths flying this week. Trap catches in most counties were higher this week than last week. Catches are still relatively light compared to long term averages, so larval populations will generally be light for the next week or so. Tobacco budworm and southwestern corn borer moths are still rare, so neither of these insects should be causing much trouble at this time.
