Latin Name | Spodoptera frugiperda |
Common Name | Fall armyworm |
Biology | Adults exhibit exceptional migratory capabilities, capable of flying hundreds of kilometers in a single night. Larvae have a voracious appetite and can feed on leaves, stems, and other plant parts; damaged leaves develop irregular, elongated holes, and in severe cases, the entire plant may be defoliated, leaving only bare stems. This pest has a wide suitable habitat range, rapid reproduction rate, and is a global agricultural pest with a field lifespan of 40 days. |
Damage | This pest damages various Poaceae plants (such as corn, rice, and wheat). |
Distribution Regions | America and Africa |
Monitoring | Pheromone lures mimic natural sex pheromones to attract male insects into specialized traps for population monitoring and suppression. As a core IPM component, monitoring enables early risk detection and targeted control. Mass trapping reduces mating opportunities to curb offspring populations. Protocols: ●Use only with matched traps. ●15-45 traps/hectare,replace/replenish every 4-6 weeks. ●Wear gloves or wash hands with detergent when switching lure types. ●Refer to trap-specific hanging instructions. |
Recommended Traps | Delta Trap, Wing Trap |
