1 Managing Spider Mites in Almonds David Haviland Entomology Farm Advisor UC Cooperative Extension, Kern Co.
2 Major influences on spider mites Spider mite biology Biological control Host and environment Chemical controls
3 Spider Mite Biology Feeds primarily on the leaves Reproduces very quickly Can cause defoliation Results in sunburn Effects on yield assumed but not well documented
4
5
6 Biological Control Sixspotted thrips Stethorus (ladybird beetles) Predatory mites Minute pirate bugs Lacewing larvae
7 Sixxpotted thrips Scolothrips sexmaculatus Larvae yellowish, cilindrical Adults with 6 spots Both are predacious on mites Can provide compete control of spider mites Often arrive late, since no alternate food source in the spring
8 Spider Mite Destroyer Stethorus picipes Adults and larvae each consume about one-half dozen mites per day At warm temperatures the spider mite destroyer can complete one generation from egg to adult in about three weeks. Females typically live one to three months, during which they lay about 1 to 2 eggs
9 Western Predatory Mite Galendromus (Metaseiulus) occidentalis Teardrop shaped, clear to red Most dependable predator Can complete life cycle in 7 days Can provide compete control of spider mites Often arrive late, since no alternate food source in the spring
10 Release recommendations Galendromus occindentalis For most crops Survive between 6 and 12 F Tolerate how humidity Release between 2,5 and 5, mites per acre at first sign of mites Release more if later in the season Repeat applications may be necessary Usually come on bean plants or in a bottle with a carrier Mites should be spread out evenly Therefore it takes time to do releases, and mites are delicate
11 Host and Environment- Growing conditions favorable to mites Average almond yields ~3, lbs/ac Dusty conditions ~6-1 inches rain per year No rain May to harvest Deficit irrigation at harvest Hot conditions Average high of 99 F in July and Aug
12 Integration- IPM Strategy Monitor for spider mites weekly Monitor for natural enemies weekly Don t starve them, don t kill them Evaluate treatment thresholds 25% presence if no predators ~4% presence if predators are present Take into account other considerations Temperature, plant stress, free rides, time of year Comparison to previous week Treat if needed Conserve biocontrol, avoid abamectin if sixspotted thrips is present Good coverage, 2 mph, 1-2 gpa, 1% oil
