What is an occasional or secondary pest?

A pest that is always present and causing damage
A pest that can cause damage above economic injury levels only at certain times
A pest that has the potential to cause damage but typically doesn’t
A pest that causes damage in a specific season every year

The correct answer is: A pest that can cause damage above economic injury levels only at certain times

An occasional or secondary pest is one that can cause significant damage, but only at certain times and not consistently. This means that it may not always be present or causing damage, but it has the potential to do so. Options A, C, and D describe pests that are either always present, rarely cause damage, or cause damage on a set schedule, making them incorrect choices. Option B is the best answer because it accurately describes the behavior and impact of an occasional or secondary pest.
