Description: The speed and orientation of airstreams required to remove adult Colo rado Potato Beetles (CPB), Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say), from potato plants were determined. We found that horizontal airstreams moving across the plants at a mean velocity of 27.5 m/s at the foliage level yielded the best removal rate (100%). Results also show that neither beetle sex nor their degree of previous exposure to airflow has an effect on the removal rate.
