Almond IPM Plan: Manage Navel Orangeworm—Bloom to Postbloom

Manage Navel Orangeworm—Bloom to Postbloom

These activities are critical during the bloom to postbloom period for navel orangeworm management:

Remove mummies from trees by February 1.

Disk or flail by March 15 to destroy mummies and the navel orangeworm larvae within them.

Hang egg traps during the first week of April to track navel orangeworm development throughout the season and to determine a biofix date to start accumulating degree-days.
