About the Event

Before you kill an insect in your garden, find out if it is beneficial or a pest! Master Gardener Karen Hurst will introduce the Integrated Pest Management approach (IPM) and discuss how to identify and deal with specific garden pests in a sustainable way. After the talk, we can tour the community garden to identify and discuss some common insect issues. 

Check out the website, http://ipm.ucdavis.edu - a treasure trove of information on pests and diseases.
