Dimilin Program in Clarke Loudoun Areas Seen as Success
Indications are the gypsy moth eradication effort in Clarke and Loudoun Counties in Virginia and parts of West Virginia succeeded. VDACS and USDA conducted three surveys, set 289 traps with no moth captures, and found no Dimilin in water or soil samples, though three vegetation samples outside and within the sprayed area showed detectable Dimilin. Some residents opposed the spraying and sought injunctions, which were dissolved. The gypsy moths trace to a 1869 European introduction.
