Johnson County Master Gardeners: Beneficial Insects & Natural Enemies in Home Gardens
Listen to an audio podcast of this program.
Zach Schumm is an Insect Diagnostician at Iowa State University. In this program, he covers the identification and biology of common natural enemies, the theory behind biological control, and issues surrounding blanket statements of the word "pest." He turned his fascination with insects into a career dedicated to entomology, diagnostics, and conservation.
This presentation is part of the Johnson County Master Gardeners Community Speaker Series, a program for gardeners and anyone looking to expand their knowledge about healthy ecosystems. It is designed to give gardeners of all experience levels the confidence to create beautiful, functional gardens.
