The WBC trapping season is about to begin. For those anxious to put up WBC traps this year, the WBC Trap Network is almost ready for you to set up your sites at: https://www.cornpest.ca/wbc-trap-network/ An email to past trap participants will be going out early next week. For those who have not entered trap sites before but are interested doing it this year, feel free to email us at wbctrapnetwork@gmail.com
Information on where to get trap supplies, how to trap and set up trap sites on the network is available at the WBC Trap Network website. I am also providing links to many of the resources we have updated this year, in case followers of Field Crop News are interested.
