We are working with a solution using exclusion netting, applied to trees after petal fall and left on until right before harvest. This reduces codling moth damage significantly. We are continuously monitoring the effectiveness at this point. Next steps are to continue to assess CM damage between netted and un-netted trees and monitor the potential secondary effects, such as beneficial insect ecology, temperature, humidity, yield, etc. We will continue to work with growers and help to implement this method across more orchards and stay steps ahead of any perceived drawbacks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Collaborating Researchers:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/tra.extension.colostate.edu\/insects\/\">Melissa Schreiner, CSU Extension Entomologist<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Outcomes:<\/strong> A deeper understanding of horticultural and environmental effects of apple netting.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_3,1_3,1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#F1F1F1&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|3%||3%|false|true&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/aes.colostate.edu\/wcrc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/147\/2024\/03\/yellow-insect-trap-no-net-1080&#215;700-1.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;A yellow sticky insect trap set within orchard trees that are not covered in nets. &#8221; title_text=&#8221;yellow-insect-trap-no-net-1080&#215;700&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; border_width_top=&#8221;4px&#8221; border_color_top=&#8221;#F15625&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/aes.colostate.edu\/wcrc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/147\/2024\/03\/yellow-insect-trap-1080&#215;700-1.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;A yellow sticky insect trap set within orchard trees covered in nets. &#8221; title_text=&#8221;yellow-insect-trap-1080&#215;700&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; border_width_top=&#8221;4px&#8221; border_color_top=&#8221;#F15625&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/aes.colostate.edu\/wcrc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/147\/2024\/03\/tractor-moth-netting-1080&#215;700-1.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;Tractor implement to spool\/unspool orchard row netting above the trees.&#8221; title_text=&#8221;tractor-moth-netting-1080&#215;700&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; border_width_top=&#8221;4px&#8221; border_color_top=&#8221;#F15625&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#F1F1F1&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|3%||3%|false|true&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/aes.colostate.edu\/wcrc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/147\/2024\/03\/moth-count-graph-1080&#215;700-1.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;Line graph showing counts of codling moth adults in traps during the growing season for years 2018 through 2023.
