A report by extension entomologist Harold Gunderson of Iowa State University notes highly variable counts of cankerworm moths on tangle foot bands during the week of April 20 at Oskaloosa Knoxville Indianola Emerson and Red Oak. Predictions place egg hatch the week of April 27 in southern Iowa and May 5 to 7 in counties along Highway 6. Elm leaves should be checked a week after hatch for larval feeding. early larvae skeletonize leaves and larger larvae web along leaf veins. Treatment timing depends on the first hatch and leaf damage. Four spray options are recommended: DDT methoxychlor and Sevin with ground or air application, and a spore suspension Thuricide 90T. DDT and methoxychlor may affect wildlife. Sevin has the least wildlife impact. Thuricide 90T is the most expensive and targets larva of moths and butterflies.
