My research since joining the Georgia Station faculty in 1989 has explored the ecology and management of arthropod pests associated with turfgrass and woody ornamentals in the urban environment. The focus of my research is the development of decision making guidelines for landscape pests which incorporate knowledge of the biology, behavior, and damage potential of the pests and those regulating influences due to associated beneficial arthropods. A synopsis of Research, Extension and Instruction efforts as well as key pests and beneficials found in turf and ornamentals may be viewed at my Landscape Pest Management web site. A resource providing scouting and treatment timing, identification and biology for more than 30 insect and mite pests of importance to nursery growers may be viewed by using the Nursery Pest Management Calendar.
