Damage Signs

Caterpillars feed in the crown of the spinach plant and can severely stunt or kill seedlings. The potential for damage and contamination continue right up until harvest. In the San Joaquin Valley, fall populations are much more damaging than spring populations. Cutworms feed at or below ground level.
