Codling Moth Degree Day Totals

The degree day totals listed in the following indicate the predicted stage of development of codling moth populations near the weather stations. Growers and advisors can use the values to determine the stage of codling moth in their area in order to properly time the application of ovicidal and larvicidal products to control each of the larval generations that may develop.

For those interested, a complete codling moth degree day development table is available here (pdf).
