Please join us for this webinar series for information you can use about good and bad insects. Topics will include how you can help good insects in your garden and how to control insects we think of as bad, like fire ants, termites, bed bugs, white grubs, and wasps. Moles, squirrels, and rats aren’t insects but they are troublesome, so we will have a webinar about them too. Webinars will be on the first Friday of each month at 2 p.m. Eastern time. Click on the title for information on how to connect to the webinar.
