Pest management class July 11
NEWPORT – The WSU Master Gardeners are offering a class on Integrated Pest Management, Thursday, July 11, from 1-2:30 p.m. The class will be presented by Master Gardener Kamori Cattadoris. IPM is an effective and environmentally sensitive approach to manage pests in your garden. In IPM, pesticides are used only when needed and in combination with other approaches for more effective, long-term control. There are beneficial predators that prey upon harmful insects. For example, lady beetles that eat aphids. IPM control is a broad-based approach that integrates both chemical and non-chemical practices for control of pests. In this class people will learn how to control pests while minimizing or eliminating the use of chemical toxins.
This class will take place at the Extension Office located at 227 S. Garden Ave., in Newport.
