Join UCCE Master Gardener instructors Kit Veerkamp and Bridget Maloney-Krips as they present strategies to keep populations of all potential pests below the level at which a pesticide is considered necessary through a combination of tactics that includes cultural, biological, and physical controls, with chemical controls being used only if other measures prove inadequate. The emphasis is on managing pests (i.e., keeping them within tolerable limits), rather than on eliminating them completely.
