Get out your field guides and practice your pest management knowledge by clicking on the GUESS THE PEST logo or following this link: http://www.udel.edu/008255 and submitting your best guess. For the 2021 season, we will have an “end of season” raffle for a scouting toolkit for one lucky winner, and five winners will be sent a small jar of locally produced honey. Remember, you can’t win if you don’t play!
It’s time to jump back into field crops this week. Perhaps doing some yield checks on field corn, you may have noticed corn leaves that looked like they had heavy spider mite feeding. When you flip the leaf over, you see these black specks all over which is not from spider mite. Who did this?
