This link should get you to Iowa State's Western Bean Cutworm monitoring sites. When the page opens click on Trap Sites along the left side of the page. This should take you to the listing of cooperating individuals in several States. The moth flight is just starting and continues for up to six weeks. Right now there are not many moths flying but in a few weeks we might catch several hundred every night.

The Western Bean Cutworm moths that we catch in our traps every night are the moths that lay eggs on the corn plant and then the worms that hatch migrate to the ear and can destroy several kernals of corn on every ear and make a mouldy mess.
