Hi! I am an insect survey technician with the Oregon Department of Agriculture in Portland, Oregon.  We are conducting surveys to detect the introduction of new insect pests.  I am looking for orchards in Multnomah, Washington and Hood River counties to place traps this summer (2016).  There are six traps with this survey that need to be at least 70 feet apart, so I would need at least an acre of trees or for the trees to be spread out over the property.  Old orchards that are not being maintained or sprayed are ideal.

If you are interested or have questions please contact me at:

Thanks!

Welcome to the forum.  If you were looking for a place in Camas, WA I'd raise my hand.

I am at it again in 2017.  If anyone is willing to let me place some traps in their orchard for the summer I would really appreciate it.  I have to stay in Oregon, but can add northern Clackamas and Yamhill counties to my list this year.  Please contact me with any questions.

Thanks!

Perhaps the HOS Arboretum itself would be a candidate. I am not familiar with their spray program.

Jafar and others could better advise.

John S, 

I sent you an email last week and fear that it may not have reached you. I will resend it today, but if you don't see it please check your spam folder or email me at abasting@oda.state.or.us

Thank you!

Hi Bug girl,

I got your question, answered it, and then got the same question and sent you the same answer again.  I haven't heard from you since.  I'll try to send it again. I always check my spam folder. You might want to check yours.
