Welcome to PestWeb

PestWeb is a regional insect pest-monitoring program and web based information-sharing tool for farmers and researchers in the Northern Rivers Region of NSW.

Farmer volunteers monitor insect populations during the season using pheromone traps and visual monitoring techniques.

Monitoring results are uploaded to an online database where the information is stored and shared with other volunteer monitors and researchers. PestWeb offers farmers regional information on current incidence and movement of pests over time.

This knowledge helps farmers make crucial pest management decisions.
