Oriental Fruit Moth Update

In southern counties we have accumulated approximately 102 DD base 45 since the biofix set on 4/16. Based on the current forecast, insecticides  for OFM control should be applied  in 7-10 days. In northern counties, only 14 DD have accumulated since the biofix set on 4/22 so no applications for OFM will be needed for about 2 weeks.
