Candice Hart and Doug Gucker, Extension Educators in Horticulture and Local Foods Systems, have created a series of short videos for homeowners that will help answer common questions about how to use pesticides safely and properly around the home lawn and garden. The four videos in the series have been released: Pest Identification; Pest Control Product Selection; Applying the Right Rate; and Safe Use of Pesticides.
Please remember that pesticides are one of the ways we can control insects and diseases in addition to exclusion, resistant varieties, biological control and cultural management (cultivation, mulching, etc).
We hope you find our Home Lawn and Garden Pesticide series helpful for your gardening season.
