Black Light and Pheromone Trapping Program

Joanne Whalen, Extension IPM Specialist; jwhalen@udel.edu

Our black light and CEW pheromone traps are now up and running for the season. The traps are generally checked on Monday and Thursday and counts are posted on our webpage by early Tuesday and Friday morning. This season we will again be trapping for corn earworm, European corn borer and 3 stink bug species. Please use the following link to access all trap information (http://extension.udel.edu/ag/insect-management/insect-trapping-program/). I will also begin the Crop Pest Hotline starting on May 11 (instate – 800-345-7544; out of state- 302-831-8851).
