This program will discuss insect pests that are usually not encountered on a regular basis. The pests will be examined by their insect order. This first class in the series will study Coleopterans: beetles, weevils, etc., including their biology and control.
This program will explore the biology and control of Cockroaches (Order: Blattodea), concentrating on the roaches most important in the pest control industry, especially those of the genera Periplaneta (American, Australian, etc.), and Blattella (German). Roach control is discussed in varied scenarios.
