Farm advisors report one moth was caught in a trap at a vineyard in January. No additional insects have been caught since.
Napa County was the center of the infestation that started in 2009. Farm advisors think the populations have been greatly reduced. However, they do expect to find additional moths when the grapevines bloom.
