Navel orangeworm (NOW) is a very challenging pest for California almonds and pistachios, causing a lot of damage to these nut crops. Many growers include mating disruption as part of their pest management program, but managing navel orangeworm under mating disruption can be difficult if you don't have the right data due to what’s commonly known as “trap shutdown”.

In this video, you'll learn how different lures used in navel orangeworm traps can affect the usefulness of the trap data and why we've decided to switch over to using nutmeal lures.

You'll see the benefits of nutmeal lures in action after walking through an example of real navel orangeworm trap data collected on a ranch in California, and how it can be used to inform pest management decisions.

You'll then gain some tips on how to prepare for the start of the navel orangeworm season to set yourself up for success.
