It seems like whenever I make a generalized statement about ABW adult activity, the beetles immediately do the opposite.
In the last week, we have seen some North Carolina sites inch their way towards a threshold for treatment.
It’s been an unusually warm season and we are seeing early ABW activity at two of three WeevilTrak sites in North Carolina. Historically, first applications...
Despite having a relatively busy few weeks, ABW activity has finally seemed to drop off for the season.
WeevilTrak site reports from the last 2-3 weeks indicate that ABW adult activity has not really slowed, and has even increased, in some areas. Despite...

As of Friday, April 2, things were getting a bit of a late start in North Carolina, especially compared to 2020, when a warm February resulted in early...
With a few exceptions, annual bluegrass weevil (ABW) activity in North Carolina has been quiet since early June. This is typical for this area. Most years...
…it’s (typically) the busiest time for annual bluegrass weevil (ABW) and management in North Carolina. If ever you were going to pick a time to monitor...
In the last few days, sites in Cashiers and around the Hendersonville area have seen increased numbers in adults so it is likely time to start planning...
