Serving Southern Jefferson County in the Great State of Montana

Dalmatian Toadflax Insects Available

The Whitehall Biological Control Project of Jefferson County will be collecting Dalmatian toadflax stem boring weevils (Mecinus janthiniformis) these next few weeks. These insects effect only the noxious weed Dalmatian toadflax. The adults are emerging now, and they damage the leaves. They lay eggs on the stems of the plant and the larvae mine (eat tunnels) within the stem. The larvae cause the most damage.
