The Insect and Mite Pests module will focus on insect and mite pests affecting woody landscape plants. Emphasis will be placed on pest identification, biology, population dynamics, and non- chemical and chemical management strategies. Students will be expected to have a working knowledge of basic insect biology, anatomy, and principles of integrated pest management (IPM) and/or plant health care (PHC). If during the field season, outdoor field studies will be conducted. A comprehensive final exam will be given at the end of the course and will be required in order to get Advanced Training credit for the module.
