The purpose of this site is to provide information on the biology and management of sharpshooters and Pierce's disease, with a focus on Southern California vineyards and surrounding areas.

The blog will be used to post regular updates on the results of the Temecula glassy-winged sharpshooter areawide monitoring program and to occasionally share other information relevant to sharpshooters, Xylella fastidiosa, or Pierce's disease.

For more information, contact Matt Daugherty (matt.daugherty@ucr.edu; 951-827-2246)
