Adam,
Here is a summary of what we talked about, plus a few more things that i need your help with:
– list of most common tree/forest pests in FL and insecticides approved for them
– get a black twig borer ASAP and isolate fungi from it for Polly’s experiment
New things:
– please pull together a small collection of beetles for an extension event: Xyleborus glabratus, Xylosandrus crassiusculus, Dendroctonus frontalis, Dendroctonus terebrans. Make LAAARGE labels for them (in plain English), put them in a specimen mailing box, and ship them to:
Gabrielle Milch
UF-IFAS Extension at Seminole County
250 W. County Home Rd.
Sanford, FL 32773-6197
– please mail the framed beetle collection in my student’s office to:
Greg Dunn
Florida Forest Service

…please pack it carefully, it’s glass…
