WBC Trap Network - Training and Supply Pickup Dates


For those who have not had time to check emails or reply to the emails from the western bean cutworm trap network, here is an announcement about trap supply pick up days. It will only take a few minutes to pick up your supplies but we will also be providing you with training material and my assistant, Katrina will be on location to answer any additional questions you might have.

Anyone still interested in participating in our trap network this year, please contact us at wbctrapnetwork@gmail.com or call us at 519-674-1696.

Trap supplies and training material that you will need can be picked up at one of three locations. When you pick up your supplies, please plan a way to keep the pheromone lures cool (bring a cooler and ice pack or plan to return home to place them in the freezer to store them right away). Leaving them in a warm vehicle for the day will prematurely age the lures and make them less effective.
