Trapping

Use traps and monitor insects to provide:

  • information on pest activity
  • information on insect numbers
  • validation of degree-day models, which predict insect emergence
    information to optimize spray timing

Most traps catch only the adult stage of the pest and may not provide information on the destructive larval stage.
