Insect: Winter Moth
Application at beginning of egg hatch with insecticides that work on contact and do not require feeding can provide some control before larvae begin feeding inside buds. Bt products and Intrepid are not effective on Winter moth at Green Tip as the larvae do not feed until they are inside buds. Winter moth is not listed as a target pest on most labels. Rates are based on dose for other spring caterpillars.
