Dr. Bill Robinson, B&G Equipment: “Hit Them Where They Live – Pests and Their Harborages”
Posted: January 13, 2015 in New York Pest ExpoTags: Dr. Bill Robinson, harborage, insects, New Pest Expo, pest identification, Pest Management
It was great to have Dr. Bill Robinson present again at the New York Pest Expo. Pest harborages were the main focus of his talk. He shared with us how proper pest identification leads to locating the precise harborage site which in turn leads to effective control with a minimum use of chemicals.
Simply put, once a harborage site is located we can treat and kill the pest. A harborage is not just a “hiding place;” it’s a protective fortress where the pest can gain access to food and water. Harborage provides shelter and often offers an ideal location for breeding.
