Cotton Insect Pheromone Traplines in Mississippi - 1999

Michael R. Williams


 
ABSTRACT

Boll weevils and 5 Lepidoptera species were pheromone trapped along major east/west highways in the cotton region of Mississippi in 1999. Weevil numbers were highest in the non-eradicated area and along the edges to it. Moth numbers were highest in the Delta region without regard to eradication areas. The South Delta traps averaged twice the bollworm and budworm moths as North Delta traps which averaged twice that of the Hill region. All insect numbers were extremely low in all regions of the state for the year.
