UI PSYLLID AND ZC UPDATE

Potato psyllids were trapped this week on sticky cards in Canyon, Ada, Elmore, Twin Falls and Cassia Counties. This was our first potato psyllid captured this year in Cassia County. So far no psyllids tested to date have been positive for the bacterium that causes ZC. We are still waiting on results from psyllids collected during this and last week.
