| Latin Name | Agrotis ipsilon |
| Common Name | Black cutworm |
| Biology | Adults are nocturnal with strong flight ability, strongly attracted to black light traps and sugar-vinegar solutions, and lay eggs in moist soil or on weeds. Larvae have damage characteristics similar to those of the yellow cutworm (Euxoa messoria), making them the most damaging species of cutworms. They complete multiple generations annually and are capable of long-distance migration. |
| Damage | This pest damages multiple crops such as cotton, corn, vegetables, and tobacco. |
| Distribution Regions | Global vegetable-growing regions |
| 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 |
