Ahh. Spring....warmth....and (yikes!) brown marmorated stink bugs (BMSB). They're coming out of hiding and we'd like to introduce you to them—on web video. Check out “Tracking the Brown Marmorated Stink Bug,” which shows growers and others how to identify BMSB, why this pest is important in agriculture, and what’s at stake if we don’t stop it.
A team of 50 scientists is working toward sustainable solutions. Find out more at StopBMSB.org
Bonus: Here’s a link to a story that ran on NPR’s All Things Considered on Saturday where Mike Raupp predicts a huge wave of cicadas and Tracy Leskey talks about stink bugs and efforts to stop them.
