Silverleaf Whitefly (SLW) is a major pest

due to its ability to contaminate cotton

lint with honeydew. Management of SLW requires a year round Integrated Pest Management (IPM) approach as SLW are highly mobile, can quickly build resistance to many insecticides and numbers can rapidly expand especially if natural enemies are reduced by insecticides. This document provides recommendations for effective monitoring and best management of SLW in Australian cotton.
