Interesting statement from Penn State about laying eggs through July and August.
According to Rutgers it is about one month from mid June. And that's what my observations are.
Sometimes, if summers were hot, I've seen the moths in mid-August. But this is considered 2nd generation.

Anyway, need to be on alert.

Here is a captivating reading on life cycle of SVB

And a great summary of different research on SVB for different regions
