Aphid Alert July 6, 2018

Trap Catches Identified to July 6th


Greetings!



Welcome back from the holiday week, hope you had a great July 4th.  For the third week in a row, we have recovered few aphids with very little vector pressure. With 8 sites reporting, we recovered 3 total vectors - 2 from Perham and 1 from Lake of the Woods. We did find 1 Green Peach Aphid from Perham.

As we stated last week, recovering fewer aphids from the traps does not mean we should hold off or slow down on scouting. With the rain and standing water dissipating, that will leave open spots or sections of soil. These open spots are a huge target for aphids as they tend to be more attracted to plants directly next to bare soil.

Keep on scouting!
