Group,
I remember when I was getting started, how tough it was to figure
out the Squash Vine Borer moth and her madening love affair with my pumpkin
plants. First of all finding a moth was a challenge and second identifying
the eggs and their location on my plants was next to impossible! So one can
understand my excitement when I discovered Warrior-T/Scimitar and its
devastating effectiveness with my primary nemesis the (SVB). Have I ever
said how much I love Warrior? I know, only a million times. Anyway, while
in the patch the other day I was watching a female moth as she danced with
death around my plants. As usual she was very hesitant to land on the old
growth which had been sprayed. So with a sort of reluctant vengence against
me she chose to lay her eggs on a tiny piece of new growth. After sealing
her fate with a new dose of Warrior-T ( 14 days since my last application), I
removed the new growth with the eggs on it and took a photo. There are two
eggs in the picture can you find them?
