Moth Trapping Report (Corn Earworm are Flying)

Author:  Comments Off on Moth Trapping Report (Corn Earworm are Flying)

This will be the last week that moth trapping data will be reported (link here).  Results from last week indicate the the corn earworm (bollworm) flight has finally kicked off, but trap catches last week varied considerably from 2 – 213 moths per trap.  The hot spots appear to be Hardeman, Dyer, Lauderdale, Haywood, Madison and Lake Counties.  This could certainly affect relatively late fields of soybean, sorghum and cotton in these areas.  You should expect this flight to continue this week and longer.  Tobacco budworm moth catches were low across the board.
