Cereal Leaf Beetle
Biofix: May 6, 2025
Degree Days since Biofix:117
Management Action 1 Week Ago:none
Present Management Action:May 20 to May 21 - Peak CLB egg numbers occur on small grain foliage.
Early scouting now can identify fields that could be at risk of significant CLB damage this year.
It is too early to take control action, however (instead, scouting should be repeated at 325).

Management Action for the Next 3 Weeks:June 3 - Overall field populations of CLB now include approximately 50% eggs and 50% larvae. <br><br>Now is an excellent time to sample to determine whether there will be need for control (see CLB Utah Pests Fact Sheet). <br><br>If control needed, it is best if possible to apply between 400 and 450 DD rather than earlier (to minimize harm to biological control of CLB by parasitic wasps).June 10 - If needed, apply control (see CLB Utah Pests Fact Sheet)
