Gilberto, pareces muy preocupado que he repetido la misma respuesta y que encima ponen "agree"! Tienes toda la razon que no hay que repetir respuestas, lo que pasa es que la respuesta de Rafael no era visible cuando yo puse la mia.

: Yes, tough titty Gilberto, life's like that. BTW I only agree if they are indeed referring to the "gusano" and not some other kind of boring pest...

borer
It depends on which type of borer is concerned; there are leaf or stem borers, for example...

Borer may refer to: Insects: Moths:
Borer (moth genus) - Podosesia syringae, Ash Borer or Lilac Borer
Melittia cucurbitae or squash vine borer, a pest of cucurbit vines
Ostrinia, pests of maize and other plants
Anobiidae, a family of beetles, especially:
Anobium punctatum, common furniture borer
Woodboring beetles.

Although if it's the "minador de hojas", it's a "leaf miner", which always makes me think of them going "hi-ho!" off to work like the 7 dwarves...

--------------------------------------------------
Not all borers are "worms" (gusanos) so I'd just say a borer or "boring pest" ...

Note added at 1 hr (2009-12-08 16:29:04 GMT)
--------------------------------------------------
There is little difference between a borer and a miner except that the borer feeds deeper in the tissues of plant. ...

--------------------------------------------------
However, if the "barrenador" in question refers to Cochliomyia hominivorax, it is then the New World screw-worm fly, or screw-worm, which is not a plant pest. More context needed.
