Don't Squash that Bug! Recognizing Beneficial Insects in the Garden

Seating is limited. Registration is recommended. Walk-ins are also welcome. 

Our gardens are home to a host of insects that prey upon or parasitize the insects that attack our plants. Master Gardener Candace Simpson will help you learn how to recognize these “natural enemies,” distinguish them from common pest insects, and encourage them to make your garden their home. Other methods for managing common insect pests will also be discussed.

Infrared assistive listening systems are available for use during this event. Please see Library staff for assistance.
