Pheromone Trap Counts, August 14, 2015

Bollworm counts fell some for the second consecutive week, a clear indication that the generation that developed in corn has mostly emerged and we are now in the larval stage of the next generation. Tobacco budworm were similar to the last several weeks, a rate that is average to low for this time of year. There are still plenty of moths flying in the environment, so susceptible fields need to be monitored.
