Beneficial Bug Tour of Nasami
Description
Tour the greenhouses at Nasami Farm; see how common pests are successfully managed with biological controls in lieu of pesticides. Biocontrols are intentionally released insects, mites, nematodes, and microorganisms. Scout for some of these beneficial bugs and their prey. Learn about the grisly end of an aphid that encounters a predatory wasp. Bring a hand lens and sun protection.
