Summary

The control of so-called secondary pests is a growing concern for arboriculturists. The greater selectivity of the phytosanitary protection methods used partly explains the increase in their presence. In the current phytosanitary context, it is vital to characterize the risks and identify the solutions available to control these pests. The apple codling moth is a widespread pest in Europe and North America. In AB apple orchards, it can cause severe yield losses that are economically damaging. Other species of hoplocampus attack pears (H. brevis) and plums (H. minuta and H. flava), and are not covered in this data sheet.


Summary translation

Le contrôle des ravageurs dits secondaires pré-occupe de plus en plus les arboriculteurs. La plus grande sélectivité des méthodes de protection phytosanitaire utilisées explique en partie l’augmentation de leur présence. Dans le contexte phytosanitaire actuel, il est primordial de caractériser les risques et d’identifier les solutions disponibles pour contrôler ces ravageurs. L’hoplocampe du pommier est un ravageur largement répandu en Europe et en Amérique du Nord. En verger de pommier conduit en AB, il peut entrainer de très fortes pertes de rende-ment préjudiciables économiquement. D’autres espèces d’hoplocampes s’attaquent à la poire (H. brevis) et à la prune (H. minuta et H. flava), elles ne sont pas traitées dans cette fiche.
