The Washington State Department of Agriculture hosts a “Golden Trap Ceremony” on the Capitol Campus, marking the 50th year of the department’s efforts to trap Spongy Moths and prevent their establishment in Washington. Tracy Shirek, who has been a seasonal trapping supervisor with the WSDA Spongy Moth Program for nearly 30 years, will have the honor of hanging a golden trap to mark the start of the trapping season.
