About the Book
This book is intended to present a comprehensive picture of major pests and their management in and around the home, garden, lawn, greenhouse and backyard orchard. It will be valuable, not only to the homeowner, but also to owners of small farms, professional gardeners, grounds keepers, landscape maintenance persons, structural pest control servicemen and to students enrolled in various pest control, ecological and environmental courses. It is a fully illustrated catalog of selected pests and their intelligent manipulation with and without the use of pesticides.
Written to meet the needs of urban and suburban residents, its purpose is to present how-to-do-it information to the layman in a simple, understandable way - to give him an appreciation for the very important chemical and non-chemical tools and a knowledge of the biology and ecology of the pests they are intended to control.
