Pest Behaviour
The Citrus Fruit Borer (Ecdytolopha aurantiana) is a lepidopteran that has 7-8 generations per year, its evolution is closely linked to the ripening process of the fruit and the temperature and relative humidity.
It is a one of the main citrus pests in South America and Central America.
The main damage is caused by the females, when they make holes in the fruits to oviposit, and the larvae, when they develop inside them while feeding. Likewise, the holes are an entry point for pathogenic organisms, with which the attacked fruits rot and fall prematurely. It can attack both green and ripe fruits.
