Pest Behaviour
The Beet Armyworm (Spodoptera exigua) has a very fast biological cycle and does not have a diapause, being able to produce between 3 and 6 generations per year.
It is a polyphagous and migratory pest and therefore has various flights. It spends the winter in the south of the peninsula or in North Africa, and usually travels north when summer approaches.
They feed on the green parts of the plant and the main symptoms of damage are bites in the leaves and the presence of perforations in fruits. The larvae feed on the epidermis of the leaves, leaving only the nerve.
