Comments
EPPO Reporting Service 500/08. Found by two glasshouse firms. The Danish plant protection service is controlling infestation with pesticides. Trade in propagating material of Euphorbia pulcherrima is seen as the most dangerous means of propagation.

Since 1993, Denmark has EU protected zone status for European populations of B. tabaci. The pest will be eradicated if found.

EPPO Reporting Service (1995/17) : eradication declared successful.

EPPO Reporting Service (2000/032) : found nearly every year but always eradicated
