Full Description
Various Buprestidae (Metallic Woodborers) Beetles are serious pest of quarantine significance. Larvae feed in the phloem and outer sapwood, producing galleries that eventually girdle and kill branches as well as entire trees. These invasive pests have a devastating impact on communities that face tremendous tree removal costs associated with dead or dying trees that may pose a public safety threat.
The requested supplies are needed to equip program personnel to detect and monitor Various Buprestidae (Metallic Woodborers) Beetles. The lure-baited traps are a primary detection tool used to delimit and survey the extent of the pest infestation. Without these lure dispensers and traps defining the infestation might not be possible. The ultimate cost to the States which become infested could lose billions of dollars in forest products, and quarantines imposed by state and federal agencies may have dire consequences for plant and wood products industries. Severe damage would also occur within the tourist industry.
