ABW (Hyperodes) Traps

Today we installed five pitfall traps around the course. These traps are designed to track annual bluegrass weevils that are moving from the treeline/roughs towards the fine turf areas. By counting the adults captured it will give the staff an advantage and an idea of populations for this upcoming year. Pitfall traps are an integral part of Integrated Pest Management Program and will help us prepare for any necessary course of action.
