Vegetable leafminer (VLM) is a significant pest of horticulture globally, and a recent threat to Australian horticulture.
Identification and in-field early detection for VLM is challenging, but support and resources are available.
Early detection is vital to improve chances of containment and local eradication, and to avoid population increases as a result of inappropriate chemical use.
