Optimizing chemical control of spotted-wing drosophila

What works best in the control of spotted-wing drosophila? Crop canopy and structure and the type of pesticide spray equipment help determine the effectiveness of pesticide applications.

Potential impacts of irrigation on biocontrol of spotted-wing drosophila

A naturally occurring parasitic wasp in Oregon can help control spotted-wing drosophila in blueberries, but overhead irrigation can limit the effectiveness of this biocontrol method.

Cultural control strategies to manage spotted-wing drosophila

Cultural controls can reduce spotted-wing drosophila population pressure by modifying the microclimate within the crop so that the environment does not promote SWD reproduction and survival.

Host range and characteristics affecting fruit susceptibility to spotted-wing drosophila

Spotted-wing drosophila thrives on various soft-skinned fruits, complicating pest management as they can move between hosts with different ripening times for a year-round survival and reproduction.

Noncrop host plants used by spotted-wing drosophila

Dense vegetation around commercial fields creates a suitable habitat for spotted-wing drosophila, as the shade increases pressure and impacts sustainable integrated pest management strategies.
