This is a seasonal scouting report giving growers in the Western New
York area information on the presence of sweet corn pests and recommendations
on scouting and thresholds. The report is written by
Abby Seaman, NYS IPM's Area Extension Educator
for Vegetables.
For 6/3/03
The sweet corn moths are off to a slow start this season. Many locations
have still had no catches, and the numbers are very low for those that
have. Corn started under plastic or row cover has a big head start this
season and will be more attractive to corn borer compared with bare
ground fields once the moth flight gets going.
