Cucumber Beetle

What is the Cucumber Beetle?

Cucumber Beetles are a major problem wherever squash, cucumbers, watermelon, pumpkin and other cucurbits are grown. Beetles can kill or severely stunt seedlings and on older plants damage stems and fruits. The beetle is well known for transmitting bacterial wilt, and some viruses.  Gummy stem blight is also associated with beetle damage.  Larvae feed on roots reducing yield.  California Certified Organic Farmers (CCOF) approved.

The cucumber beetle lure has been specifically developed so that it can be used to trap multiple species of cucumber beetles.  Effective for:
Striped cucumber (Acalymma vittatum),
Western striped (A. trivittatum),
Spotted cucumber (Diabrotica undecimpunctata howardi),
Western spotted cucumber beetle (D. undecimpunctata undecimpunctata). ​

Instructions

Place lure on or very near to yellow sticky trap. Use one trap with lure per 2,000 sq.ft. for monitoring or one trap/lure per 400 sq.ft. for trapping. Replace when filled with beetles or dirty. 

The cucumber beetle lure attracts for 3-4 weeks, depending on temperature.
