Twig Girdler/Twig Pruner | These beetles cause very conspicuous damage in late summer. The leaves on large numbers of twigs and branches will be observed to turn brown prematurely. These twigs and branches sometimes fall from trees in great numbers and accumulate. On close examination, the twigs have one of two kinds of damage. Twigs damaged by the twig girdler are cut as neatly as by a knife. The cut end has been gnawed almost straight across with a faint rounding and is slightly roughened by the chewing. The twig girdler is more commonly found on pecan and hickory. The twig pruner causes a slightly different type of cut. The twig will be observed to have a hollowed out space at the cut end filled with sawdust like frass. The twig when split open will have a long tunnel through most of its length. The twig pruner is more commonly found on oak. |

The Minute Pirate Bug (Orius) | Mar 18, 2019 | 3002-1437 | |||
Baldfaced Hornet | The baldfaced hornet is a large, black and white hornet up to 1 inch (25.4mm)
in length. It is black and white in color with a mostly white head or face. It
is widely distributed in Virginia. The nests are constructed of the same
paper-like material as that of other wasps (yellowjackets). They differ a
great deal from other wasp nests in being enclosed in a thick "paper"
envelope. There is a single opening at the lower end of the nest and a few
hornets always guard this. Nests are always abandoned at the end of the
season. Hymenoptera, Vespidae: Dolichovespula maculata (L.) |

Carpenter Ants | Carpenter ants can be found outside on trees and sidewalks and indoor. Where they are found determines how
best to control them. Inside they can be active indoors during many months of the year, usually during the spring and
summer. When ants are active in the house during late winter/early spring (February/March), the infestation (nest) is
probably within the household. In late spring large numbers of foraging ants may come in from outside looking for food and may not indicate and infestation. Outside carpenter ants become active in late spring and early summer and will be seen on tree trunks and sidewalks. |

Integrated Pest Management Peanut Scouting Manual | In the competitive global peanut market, you need to lower production costs. At the same time, you also need to keep pesticide residues in peanuts to a minimum; protect rivers, streams, and lakes from runoff; and prevent chemicals from leaching through the soil to groundwater. Using IPM to protect crops only from pests that are likely to cause economic losses is a good way to meet these goals.

Spider Mites | Spider mites (Family Tetranychidae, Order Acari) are not insects; they are closely related to spiders, harvestmen (daddy longlegs), and ticks. Unlike insects, which have six legs and three body parts, spider mites have eight legs and a one-part body. They also lack wings, antennae, and compound eyes. Individual spider mites are almost microscopic, yet when they occur in large numbers, they can cause serious damage. Dozens of species attack shade trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants. |

Cereal Leaf Beetle, Biology and Management | Cereal leaf beetle, a native to Europe and Asia, was first detected
in Michigan in 1962. Since that time it has spread throughout
most of the mid-western and eastern United States and
has become a significant pest of Virginia and North Carolina
small grains. This insect can become very numerous in small
grain fields and the larvae are capable of reducing grain yield
by eating the green leaf tissue.

The Peanut Southern Corn Rootworm Advisory | The southern corn rootworm (SCR) has long been considered
a major pest of peanuts in North Carolina and Virginia.
However, researchers and Extension faculty at Virginia
Tech and NC State have determined through more than 400
commercial field trials that the majority of peanut fields
do not need to be treated. They have developed and tested
a simple-to-use advisory that identifies those fields not at
risk for pod damage or economic loss. The Southern Corn
Rootworm Advisory can save you time and money as well as
help you use insecticides more efficiently. |

Corn Earworm Biology and Management in Soybeans | Corn earworm, Helicoverpa zea, is the most common and destructive insect pest of soybeans grown in Virginia. Although infestation severity varies, about one-third of our acreage is treated annually. This costs farmers 1.5 to 2 million dollars annually, and requires the application of many pounds of insecticide to crop lands. We may never eliminate this pest from Virginia soybeans, but knowledge of the biology and use of best management practices can help limit insecticide controls to those fields that meet economic threshold criteria. This publication provides current information on corn earworm biology, prediction of outbreaks, pest advisories, scouting procedures, and recently revised economic thresholds. |

Benefits of an Insecticide Seed Treatment for Pumpkin Production in Virginia | In recent years cucurbit growers in the Mid-Atlantic U.S. could purchase their seeds pre-treated
with the neonicotinoid insecticide thiamethoxam. The insecticide seed treatment is currently
packaged as FarMore F1400, which also includes three proven and complementary fungicides
that provide the first line of defense against several key seed and seedling diseases including
Rhizoctonia, Fusarium, Pythium, general damping-off and seedling blight. |

Spotted Lanternfly | The spotted lanternfly (SLF) originates from China where its presence has been documented in detail dating as far back as the 12th century. In modern times, it was first recorded from a sample collected in Nankin, China. SLF is native to China, India, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam. In September 2014, the first detection of spotted lanternfly in the US was confirmed in eastern Pennsylvania. SLF was first found in Virginia in 2018, and is continuing its spread in our state. The geographical range is likely to expand further. It is highly invasive and can spread rapidly when introduced to new areas. This is attributed to its wide host range (more than 70 host plant species) and a lack of natural native enemies. This insect will become a pest in vineyards and fruit plantings, in residential areas, and in logging systems. |
