Bolls were infested with eggs of the pink bollworm, Pectinophora gossypiella (Saunders). Boll samples were taken to determine the infestation rate. Male pink bollworm dispersal was monitored with a series of pheromone funnel live traps. A vehicle-mounted net was studied as a possible collection device to capture female pink bollworms. The collection net was mounted on either a large sprayer or on a pickup truck. |
