Niagara County – first find

A single female was caught on July 15, 2014 at each of two locations in Niagara County. One location is a raspberry planting and the other is a blueberry planting. Two yeast baited solo cup traps were set at both locations by Liz Tee in Deborah Breth's Lake Ontario Fruit Program, Cornell Cooperative Extension. Fruit is ripe and ripening.
