Tracking Insect movements

Tracking the early spring movement of harmful turf insects, Annual Bluegrass Weevils,  is essential in determining treatment applications. We have installed two pitfall traps on the course; ( the rough on 14 and 18), to determine when insect start to move. The traps are checked daily and when the weevils appear a treatment is made usually 7 to 10 days after capture.
