Summary: The objectives of this project were: 1. Evaluate methods to age-grade CM caught in traps throughout the season. This will be used to evaluate times of peak reproductive potential during which control measures should be optimized. 2. Determine the effect of flight of specified distances on the reproductive ability of CM and OBLR males and females using laboratory assays. 3. Evaluate the effects of different cover sprays on dispersal of CM using protein markers and investigate the effects of border sprays of kaolin on movement patterns.
