Controlling Banded Ash Clearwing Moth Borer Using Entomopathogenic Nematodes    (View PDF)

Stanton Gill, John Davidson, Wanda MacLachian, and Will Potts

Abstract: The banded ash clearwing moth, Podosesia aureocincta, in 24 green ash growing in a nursery were treated with the nematode, Steinernema carpocapsae (strain 25) at two different rates. Eight infested green ash were controls in the field trial. Nematodes were applied in July using a backpack sprayer. Applications of entomopathogenic nematodes significantly reduced the number of living larvae associated with the plants.
