Earwig experiments in progress

Jul 8, 2011

The Kearney and Lindcove Entomology research teams are studying the impact of earwigs on mature and young citrus trees this year.  We have evaluated damage of young trees, conducted both field and laboratory pesticide screening and are beginning to study earwig lifecycles in mature citrus.  We invite you to join us at Lindcove on July 27 at 9 am to hear about the results of the work we have conducted so far. See the event calendar page for more information.
