SUMMARY:Pollinator-Friendly Pest Management
DESCRIPTION:In this class\, participants will learn about the pollinators\, predators\, prey\, and pests found in the environment and methods to work with the ecosystem rather than against it. Chemicals should never be needed when proper Integrated Pest Management\, or IPM\, is used. Participants will explore the necessary steps to create a Pollinator-Friendly IPM plan that is perfect for their space and focuses on cultural\, mechanical\, and biological methods rather than chemical methods\, even organic ones.
