To be such a poor flyer, the European grapevine moth (EGVM) is sure getting around.
The latest California grape pest has been trapped in six counties this season covering a wide area, and the season is still young.
It is 200 miles from Napa where the first EGVM was trapped this year to Fresno County where several were trapped recently.
The EGVM finds have prompted University of California farm advisors and specialists, local ag officials and state officials to organize a series of informational meetings in the central San Joaquin Valley.
