PECAN CIGAR CASEBEARER
The pecan cigar casebearer, Coleophora caryaefoliella (Clem), may be damaging in some years. The larva feeds on the leaves, producing tiny holes. It constructs a light brown, cigar-shaped case about one-fourth inch in length which encases it throughout development.
Control.—The spray applied for control of the nut casebearer will usually prevent significant injury by the cigar casebearer. See spray schedule, [page 4].
