Captures of silver Y moths in pheromone traps in 2019

This year several UK brassica growers are monitoring diamond-back moths in their crops using pheromone traps. Some are also monitoring silver Y moths. The results will be summarised on this web page.

If anyone else would like to contribute monitoring data to this site please contact rosemary.collier@warwick.ac.uk.

See also the Syngenta Brassica Alert which has information on pest activity in Lincolnshire crops.

The table below summarises the numbers of moths captured in pheromone traps in commercial brassica crops since late June.
