Wine grapes, table grapes, and raisin grapes. Look throughout your vineyard for honeydew and ant activity on vines Monitor mating disruption effectiveness using small paper delta traps with sex pheromone lure Hang traps in March to detect early activity One trap per 10-20 acres; at least 2 traps per block Hang at cordon height Check traps a minimum of once every 2 weeks, replacing lures every 4 weeks.Vine Mealybug decreases vine vigor and causes defoliation and grape cluster damage. Treating VMB can reduce the spread of leafroll virus. Impacts of VMB infestation include sooty mold damage on grapes and resulting in quality loss and unmarketable fruit.
