Insect Pheromone Trap Counts, July 10, 2015

Bollworm trap numbers in the Delta and Hill regions have continued to increase some over what was reported last week. Southwestern corn borer numbers are still very high in some areas of the Delta and sprays may be needed in non-Bt corn fields that have not reached R4 (soft dough). However, very few Southwestern corn borers are being observed in the rest of the state. Tobacco budworm numbers remain at very low levels and are unlikely to be a concern in any fields at this time.
