European Corn Borer - SK - Ostrinia nubilalis
Downtown at the Farmer's Market, Saskatoon and Area, Saskatchewan, Canada
August 18, 2012
These caterpillars are nasty pests this year at the family garden where they have rendered a lot of the corn crop unsalable at the farmer's market. I took these pictures in downtown Saskatoon but the corn was grown and these borers were brought in from a farm north of Saskatoon in the rural community of Bergheim near Aberdeen SK.
