Question of the Week
Spring is here!
With the arrival of spring comes the blooming of flowers, planting of gardens, and emergence of insects. Insects can be called pests if they cause annoyance or injury to people, our possessions or our interests. It is important to know
that not all insects are pests.
For example, honey bees help by pollinating plants so they may reproduce and grow.

Many pesticides kill environmentally beneficial insects along with the nuisance pests they are targeting. Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is a method for controlling pests while minimizing the use of harmful pesticides.
