Stinkbug injury was significantly reduced when aggregation lures were placed along orchard edges before border spraying commenced inJuly. Damage was 24% lower along borders that had lures placed in weed hosts every 20 feet. Further improvements are expected when overwintered adults are controlled in the same manner beginning in May.
