This is the first report of the 2017 season. Only three sites reporting this week with European corn borer (ECB)-E trapped at all three of those sites. Plantings have been delayed at several sites due to the wet spring, however, degree day accumulations for most sites are around the time of first egg laying for ECB-E according to the development model from the University of Wisconsin (see chart below).

To manage ECB in early plantings that is close to tassel emergence during the first generation flight, please see the Managing ECB in plastic, row cover and transplanted sweet corn page.
