                                Technical Abstract: Trapping is a very effective measure of moth pressure, and to-date, trap counts have been very high for the cranberry fruitworm. This pest one of the most significant for cranberry growers in Wisconsin, so heavy moth pressure now represents future problems for growers (i.e., infested fruit). The data presented here show the flight dynamic to-date, as well as strong evidence of effective mating disruption in blocks treated with moth pheromones.
