Description
- Purpose
- The purpose of the 2024 arizona nursery and retail plants pest survey will be to • continue to conduct a survey for a wide variety of pests that pose a threat to arizona's nursery production. • conduct year-round, targeted, intense inspections of nursery premises, nursery stock, and in-field roses, and surveys (red imported fire ANT and japanese beetle, for instance), in major pathway locations (nurseries with moderate to high importation volumes of nursery stock from regulated areas of the U.S., rose fields, etc.) for pests which pose a threat to arizona's commercial nursery industry and its export potential. • nursery stock with the highest associated risk for plant conveyance held in quarantine holding areas will be selected for additional, detailed inspection prior to release for sale. • for the detection of high-risk phytophagous snails, including brown garden snail and giant african snail, rose rosette disease, japanese beetle, brown marmorated stink BUG, box tree moth, spotted lanternfly, and various exotic scales, inspection staff will visually inspect nursery stock at nurseries that export or have moderate to high importation volumes of nursery stock from regulated areas of the U.S. Up to twice during the survey year, as seasonally appropriate. • a continuation in 2024 will be a trapping program for california red scale (CRS) in the high-risk nurseries in yuma county. CRS traps will be white panel traps with an accompanying lure. The trapping season will be year-round, with servicing being a minimum of monthly, lure being changed monthly, and all suspected scales submitted to the arizona department of agriculture (AZDA) plant services division (PSD) entomologist for identification. • use a meat-bait survey technique employing a 20-FT grid pattern array to survey for red imported fire ANT (RIFA) in each high-risk nursery location. 2.

- • inspectors will place and service traps following a defined protocol. • suspect samples will be reviewed by the azda PSD entomology staff. • administrative staff will manage data, financial, and supply resources for the project. 3.

Expected outcomes / results: early detection and subsequent mitigation of diseases and pests will minimize the threat to the nursery industry, reduce eradication costs and facilitate the continuation of commerce. 4.
