European Corn Borer - Home and Garden IPM from Cooperative Extension - University of Maine Cooperative Extension

The European Corn Borer (Ostrinia nubilalis) is a serious pest of grain, especially corn. It is a pest which was introduced to the U.S. from its native European continent (was first reported in North America in 1917 in Massachusetts but is suspected to have most likely been introduced years earlier than that).
