Asian Citrus Psyllid Find in Madera County

An Asian Citrus Psyllid has been found in the Bonadelle Ranchos area of Madera County. It was a single insect collected on a sticky trap. The find will result in an expansion of the ACP quarantine in both Madera and Fresno counties. Further details regarding the quarantine will be released soon. Fortunately, this is an area with little commercial citrus. Please contact Fresno County Grower Liaison Sylvie Robillard, or your County Agricultural Commissioner's office, with any questions.
