Hyphantria cunea -- Control -- Northwest, Pacific. Poplar -- Diseases and pests -- Northwest, Pacific.
Historically, the fall webworm (Hyphantria cunea) has been a minor pest in hybrid poplar plantations in the Upper Columbia River basin. However, in 2009, H. cunea populations reached unprecedented levels, causing complete defoliation in parts of several planting blocks. Here we alert integrated pest management (IPM) professionals to the potential for H. cunea to become problematic in their plantations and recommend means to monitor and control pest populations.
