Flies, ticks, and parasites don't just annoy cattle—they steal gain and profit. Recorded live at the Central Oklahoma Cattle Conference in Stillwater, OK, this episode features Dr. Jonathan Cammack (OSU Extension livestock entomology & parasitology) breaking down what producers should know about common pests like horn flies, how researchers test control tools, and why day-to-day management matters more than most folks think. The team also tackles two headline issues: New World screwworm and the invasive Asian longhorned tick. Dr. Cammack explains why screwworm is such a serious wound pest, how sterile insect technique works, and why animal movement can spread risk faster than the fly ever could. Then they pivot east—where Asian longhorned ticks have been detected in Oklahoma—and discuss why explosive tick populations and tick-borne disease threats are a growing concern across the region. Top 10 takeaways for producers Pests “steal” performance quietly—stress and blood-feeding divert energy away from gain. Screwworm isn't a nuisance fly: it targets living tissue in wounds and can escalate fast. Time matters: screwworm eggs can hatch in 12–24 hours, so delayed checks can get costly. Animal movement beats fly movement—trailers move risk hundreds of miles in a day. Sterile insect technique works because females mate once; scale and logistics are the challenge during outbreaks. Asian longhorned tick can explode in numbers because it can reproduce without mating (parthenogenesis). High tick loads can cause real blood loss, and tick-vectored disease is a growing regional concern. Feedlots are a special concern due to animal density and the difficulty of visually monitoring every animal. Good management beats extremes: not “once a year,” not necessarily “daily,” but consistent eyes-on and quick response. Research behind the scenes is constant—colonies, susceptible/resistant strains, and field tests inform what works on your operation.   Detailed timestamped rundown 00:00–01:06 Dave Deken tees up Episode 507: flies, ticks, parasites; guest Dr. Jonathan Cammack; recorded at the Central Oklahoma Cattle Conference in Stillwater.01:06–02:42 “Trip around the table” intros: Brian Arnall and Josh Lofton; setting the scene at the Payne County Expo Center.02:42–06:56 Cammack's role: OSU Extension livestock entomology/parasitology; what he covers across livestock species; why they keep fly colonies (houseflies, blowflies) for research and pesticide trials.06:56–10:51 Colony realities: genetic bottlenecks, refreshing genetics from field populations; why “susceptible” vs “resistant” strains matter for chemical testing.10:51–14:54 How trials work: planning population numbers; counting flies on cattle with visual estimates + photos; students doing image-based counts; “2000+” becomes the practical ceiling.14:54–20:01 Screwworm basics: obligate parasite of living tissue; eggs hatch fast (12–24 hours); damage can be severe; regulatory questions around response/harvest are still evolving.20:01–27:44 Control strategy: sterile insect technique; females mate once; sterile males overwhelm wild males; program history and why scaling facilities matters as the “front” widens northward.27:44–30:40 Beyond cattle: wildlife, pets, and people can be affected; reminder that wildlife movement can complicate containment; key deer example in Florida Keys (2016–2017) discussed.30:40–33:36 Other big concern: Asian longhorned tick found in northeast Oklahoma (summer 2024); parthenogenetic reproduction; potential for heavy infestations and disease-vector risk.33:36–35:27 Wrap-up: “safe from the west (for now)” tone; thanks to guest; where to find resources (reddirtagronomy.com).

Electrofishing technology is being utilised to keep Auckland's Western Springs Lake pest-free. Electrocurrents are being used to stun pest fish and turtles so they can be scooped up, brought to land and killed, with no native species being harmed in the process. Auckland Council senior freshwater ecologist Matthew Bloxham says too many people are getting rid of their old pets when they become inconvenient - with many dumping them in Western Springs. "These things become enormous and they're incredibly fecund animals, they're breeding machines. We call them habitat modifiers...what we're trying to do at Western Springs is give the natives a chance." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Next, he was a CAPS Herta Camera Gross Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Plant Pathology at Ohio State University. He joined the faculty at Brandon University in 2015. In this interview, Bryan shares more about his life and science.

Well, howdy neighbors! Fred Talley here from Faith Pest Control, right here in our beautiful corner of North Georgia. Now, if you're like me, you're probably already looking forward to those warmer days, the dogwoods blooming, and maybe getting a little dirt under your fingernails in the garden. But I've been in this business a long time—I'm a Georgia State Certified Pest Control Operator and a Public Health Specialist—and I can tell you one thing for sure: the bugs are looking forward to spring just as much as you are. In fact, they're probably already making plans to move into your guest room! With the mild winter we’ve had leading into 2026, those critters are going to be waking up hungry and looking for a place to raise a family. Here is my “neighbor-to-neighbor” guide on how to batten down the hatches before the spring rush. 1. Give Your Foundation a “Once-Over” Pests are like little water-seeking missiles. They'll find the tiniest crack in your foundation or a gap around a utility pipe and think it's a front-door welcome mat. Seal the Gaps: Grab a tube of high-quality silicone caulk. Check where your siding meets the foundation and around those outdoor faucets. Check the Screens: Don’t wait for the first swarm of flies. If your window screens have holes, those “no-see-ums” will be “now-I-see-ums” inside your kitchen real quick. 2. Manage the Moisture In Georgia, moisture is the root of almost every pest problem. Termites, cockroaches, and mosquitoes are all looking for a drink. Gutter Check: Make sure your gutters aren’t clogged with last fall’s leaves. When they overflow, they dump water right against your foundation, which is like ringing the dinner bell for Subterranean Termites. The “Inch of Water” Rule: Mosquitoes only need about an inch of standing water to breed. Check those flower pot saucers, old tires, or even kids’ toys left out in the yard. 3. Spring Cleaning Isn't Just for the Curtains I always tell folks, “If you take care of your home, it'll take care of you.” That goes for the pantry, too! Airtight is Right: Flour, sugar, and pet food should all go into sealed containers. If an ant can smell it, an ant will find it. The 20-Foot Rule: Keep your firewood piles at least 20 feet away from the house and up off the ground. Termites and mice love a good woodpile, but you don’t want them using it as a bridge to your living room. My Personal Guarantee to You Now, I know life gets busy. Sometimes you do everything right, and those bugs still find a way in. That's why I'm here. I'm not just a guy with a sprayer; I'm your neighbor. Here is my promise: If you hire me to get rid of your pest problem and, at the end of 30 days, you are not 100% HAPPY, I will come back and retreat your home for FREE. And I’ll keep on doing it until you are happy. If that still doesn’t do it, I'll give you back every penny you paid me, plus an additional $25.00 for your time and trouble. Period. Don’t let the bugs put a damper on your spring. Give me a holler!The post Jasper Spring is Comin', Neighbors! Here's How to Get Your Home Ready first appeared on Faith Pest Control.

I guarantee you've dealt with pests in multifamily at some point — but you've probably never thought about how broken the system really is.In this video, Mike Brewer sit down with Landon Cooley, fourth‑generation pest‑control pro and co‑founder of Pest Share, to unravel why pests aren't just a headache — they're a silent drag on occupancy, retention, and ultimately NOI. We walk through how traditional pest control in multifamily is fragmented, reactive, and often ignored until it becomes a crisis. Then we shift to the future: a tech‑enabled, centralized PropTech solution that puts control in the hands of residents and property managers — turning pest control from liability to amenity.If you manage multifamily properties or invest in real estate, this could dramatically change how you think about maintenance, retention, and resident satisfaction.If you care about reducing turnover and protecting NOI, make sure you subscribe — because this is one of those conversations you don't want to miss.Pest Share is a tech-driven platform founded in 2019 that modernizes pest control for the rental housing market, allowing property managers to automate service requests through integrations with their systems and offering residents easy, on-demand access to vetted national pest control providers. Co-founded by CEO Landon Cooley and brothers Justin and Tom Clements, who have deep industry experience, Pest Share aims to solve the administrative burden of pest control for managers while creating recurring revenue streams and improving resident satisfaction.

She holds a Ph.D. from Columbia University and is author of Eve: How the Female Body Drove 200 Million Years of Human Evolution (https://amzn.to/3SgBUlO). Rats, insects, bees, deer, spiders — the world is full of creatures we label as “pests.” But what actually makes an animal a pest? And why do humans respond to some species with fear, anger, or extermination, while others get sympathy or protection?

As temperatures fluctuate across metro Atlanta, homeowners may notice more pest activity as rodents and insects seek warmth and shelter. Neil Bloyd, director of learning and technical services with Northwest Exterminating, joins host Carol Morgan on the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to discuss how homeowners can proactively prepare their homes for winter pests while planning ahead for spring insect activity. Winter Pest Prevention Starts With Exclusion Rodents are the primary concern during late fall and winter, as mice can squeeze through openings “as small as a dime” and rats through openings “the size of a quarter.” Bloyd encourages homeowners to seal entry points and inspect attics—particularly when retrieving holiday decorations—for signs of droppings. “A lot of pests are attracted to lighting,” Bloyd said. “Keeping the garage door open—those kinds of things are oftentimes overlooked, but they can lead to pest issues.” What winter pests should homeowners look for in the fall? Smoky brown cockroaches tend to surge in the fall and persist through winter, while Joro spiders are strictly outdoor spiders and unlikely to enter homes. While their long-term ecological impact is still being studied, Bloyd notes that Joro spiders can be beneficial predators, particularly of brown marmorated stink bugs, which are harmful to agriculture. Getting Ahead of Spring Insects Looking ahead to spring, managing moisture is one of the most effective preventive strategies. “Replacing old pine straw or mulch is advised, as well as not piling it too high,” Bloyd said. “If you can keep a six-inch gap between the pine straw mulch and the foundation that allows that area to dry out, which makes it less inviting for those pests.” Vegetation management is also critical. Tree limbs and shrubs touching the home act as “easy highways” for ants and other insects to enter the structure. Timing Matters for Sealing and Treatments Homeowners should carefully consider when to seal entry points. Sealing too early can trap overwintering pests—such as ladybugs, stink bugs and box elder bugs—inside wall voids, leading to odors and secondary infestations “I would advise doing that in late spring or even summertime,” Bloyd said, “when they've already vacated but before they return for winter.” Mosquito prevention should begin in February or March to reduce populations before peak season. By summer, populations are often already established, making control much more difficult. Termite Protection and Inspections Termites remain a year-round concern in Georgia. Bloyd recommends annual professional inspections. Termite swarms, most common in spring, indicate an established colony and require timely attention. Northwest Exterminating offers a range of termite protection options, including the Sentricon Colony Elimination System, as well as pretreatment services for new construction in partnership with homebuilders.

One of the rottenest pests gardeners get on their plants are Pseudococcus longispinus, or any of its close relatives. Longispinus derived from the word meaning “with a long spine or tail”, so we're talking about the Long-Tailed Mealybug. Mind you, there are other rotters that don't look anything like these mealybugs – a variety of scale insects do the same kind of damage, which you really don't want to see in the garden. All these insects feed by plumbing their mouthparts into the veins of the plants where they extract honeydew, a sweet sap that contains Nitrogen, which makes the young bugs grow. Ah! Yes, the group of sap-sucking bugs is the only invertebrate cohort that can be called “bugs” in the naming game of Entomology! They ingest the sap and poop out honeydew. But their numbers (huge groups) and activities are debilitating for your plants, causing yellowing and ill-thrift, plus black sooty mould all over the place. The sooty mould is a fungal cover that feasts on the sweet honeydew – you can always tell the suckers because of the sooty mould! To identify these mealy-insects you'll need to have a good eyesight. The way to start your identification is to look for dense, white patches of silk all over your plants, especially over the leaves and on the stems. If you scrape off the fluffy white deposits, you'll get to the insects hiding underneath that fluff. Big ones and smaller ones all living together out of the rain and out of the sun. 1-4 mm in size. They eat a massive range of plants, both edibles and ornamentals. The spines and tails give the game away – there are also droplets of honeydew in amongst the mix. Scale insects are a different-looking critter. These pests are characterised by looking like randomly shaped and coloured pustules on the stems and leaves of the host plant. Often the “caps” of the scale insects are pretty hard; the actual insects live under the caps, often in perfect protection. Control of mealy bugs and scale insects is difficult. The white fluffy silky stuff makes the bugs waterproof – water-based sprays cannot penetrate through their skin, unless you use some systemic insecticide that is taken up by the plants. Groventive is such a systemic spray but read the label and you find it cannot be used on edible crops! Conquerer Oil and Neem Oil are non-systemic treatments that will give the immature Mealybugs a run for their money (suffocation and inhabit their feeding from the plant). But it will require regular spraying (once a week) until all bugs have starved to death or suffocated. Thoroughly cover the infested plant – and don't forget the underside of the leaves too!

11 17 25 Newer Crop Pests by Ag PhD

Voles, gophers, and ground squirrels are more than a nuisance — they can devastate vineyards if left unchecked. In this episode, host Fritz Westover sits down with Kelly Mulville of Paicines Ranch and Newt Wimer, an agricultural innovator, to discuss practical, sustainable ways to manage these vertebrate pests. Kelly shares his firsthand experience with a sudden vole outbreak at Paicines Ranch — one of the worst he's ever seen — and explains how quickly the damage escalated. He walks through the telltale signs of vole damage, how girdling kills vines, and why population cycles and rainfall patterns play a role in outbreaks. Newt provides insight into developing an organic-approved, non-poisonous control technology that uses liquid CO₂ to safely and efficiently manage underground pests without harming predators or soil ecology. Together, they emphasize that pest management must balance ecological health, economics, and innovation. Listeners will learn how combining predator support (owls, weasels), physical barriers, and new technologies can help reduce damage sustainably. The conversation also highlights ongoing efforts at Paicines Ranch to create regenerative systems that share successes and failures openly, helping the vineyard community at large. In this episode, you will hear: Voles, gophers, and ground squirrels can cause extensive vineyard damage, especially through girdling and root feeding. Outbreaks are cyclical and may correspond with wetter years that promote vole breeding. Physical barriers like vole tubes and underground fencing can protect vines—but must be properly installed and buried. Encouraging natural predators such as owls and weasels significantly supports organic pest control. New cryogenic CO₂ technology offers a fast, organic-approved, and cost-effective solution for underground pest management.

More than just a pest, the rat is an unacknowledged actor in Philippine history, its story intertwined with our own from prehistoric times to the modern day. This episode uncovers that hidden narrative, from the extinct giant cloud rats that coexisted with ancient humans to the arrival of invasive species that brought centuries of agricultural plagues and colonial-era disease. It examines the rat's evolution into a public health enemy, the target of post-war military campaigns, and a potent cultural symbol—euphemized as "mabait" in folklore while weaponized as the namesake for a brutal paramilitary group. With this journey, we find that rats reflect our society's failures in agriculture, urbanization, and waste management, proving that the rat's story is inseparable from our own.

Ever wonder how cats went from desert hunters to divine house gods? In this episode of For the Love of History, host TK digs her claws into the fascinating history of cats — from their mysterious beginnings in the Fertile Crescent to their worship in ancient Egypt and beyond. Meet Bastet, the Egyptian goddess of cats who went from lioness warrior to goddess of home, music, and pleasure. Sail down the Nile to the ancient city of Bubastis, where people once threw wild festivals in her honor (think: ancient Coachella with more fur and fewer rules). Then, follow the whiskers east to Japan to meet Maneki Neko, the lucky cat statue that isn't Chinese at all, but a beloved Japanese symbol of prosperity with a legend that began during the Edo period. You'll also meet Crimean Tom, a war hero tabby who saved lives during the Crimean War, and Tomiu, the first-named cat in recorded history — a fur baby so loved that she received her own limestone sarcophagus. Whether you're a lifelong cat devotee or just tolerate your feline overlord's 3 a.m. zoomies, this episode will convince you that cats have always been — quite literally — divine. You'll Learn: When and where cats were first domesticated (hint: not Egypt!) Why Bastet ruled ancient Egypt as both warrior and nurturer The real history behind Japan's beckoning Maneki Neko The heroic and heartwarming tales of real-life historical cats As Carl Van Vechten wrote in The Tiger in the House, “I do not wonder that some people love cats. I am only surprised that all people do not love cats.” After this episode, you might just agree.

Persistent Pests “Catch all the foxes, those little foxes, before they ruin the vineyard of love, for the grapevines are blossoming!” ‭‭Song of Songs‬ ‭2‬:‭15‬ ‭ These little foxes aren't yet fully grown. Nobody would think a cuddly little fox would be dangerous to have around. They love nothing better than to eat the young grapes before they come out fully. Thus, they wreak havoc on the vines of our walk with the Lord.  Let's mention 5 of the “little foxes” or persistent pests that ruin some of our fruitful writing before it's fully ripened… 1.) Sensitiveness or easily offended. It can be a small chip on our shoulder but flare up if we're not given the respect we desire. It can stifle our creativity in writing and dry up the flow of the Spirit. Pray that we can have the mind and humility of Christ. 2.) Laziness. Too lazy to dig into the Word. Too lazy to spend time in prayer. This also leaks into our writing. The Kingdom Writer cannot afford to compromise in these areas if we expect eternal impact. There's a cost to those things and also a great reward.  3.) Living in regret. The most powerful 3 words in history were uttered by Jesus while hanging on the cross, “It is finished!” Regret sucks the life out of us and keeps us from moving forward in all that God has for us.  4.) Distraction. Causes us to go down rabbit trails. Social media is the major distraction of our day. One writer calls it “nuggets of nothingness.” Before we know it, we've wasted 1-2 hours with nothing to show for it.  5.) Busyness. We fill up our days and weeks with good things. But somehow we fail to set aside scheduled writing blocks. Or when we do, it can easily be cancelled and replaced by something else. It's not treated as a priority. The only way to handle these “little foxes” is to kill them. If we don't, our sweetest, most fruitful writing, like vine-ripened grapes, will not materialize. Resources: If you're ready to take a step of faith and finally finish your book, we have a few ways we can help you.  1.

Jay Watte is a fourth-generation farmer from the Imperial Valley in Southern California, where he manages a family operation focused on seed production. Thanks to his pioneering practices, Jay hasn't sprayed insecticides on his farm for nearly two years. Instead of pesticides, Jay uses nutrient management, particularly boron applications, to boost plant resilience and reduce pest pressure. His experiments with soil inoculations and cover crops, are yielding promising results, including healthier plants and higher seed quality. Jay's approach emphasizes sustainable practices that prioritize long-term soil vitality and community well-being over short-term gains. Jay supplies major retailers and local farmers with his seed, especially Bermuda grass and alfalfa. Beyond seed production, he has ventured into growing agave and is launching a market garden to provide diverse, healthy produce to his community through a local CSA program. In this episode, John and Jay discuss: The challenges of producing seed compared to forage crops Improving alfalfa seed quality  Changing regional crop patterns, including the decline of cotton and sugar beets Water management and irrigation challenges in a desert environment Evolving management strategies to combat the rise in pest and disease pressures Jay's success in reducing insecticide use through boron and nutrient management The benefits of soil inoculations and cover crops in regenerative farming Jay's vision for a sustainable legacy for his children and community Additional Resources To learn more about AEA's Rebound Boron, please visit: https://advancingecoag.com/product/rebound-boron-gal-p6850075/ About John Kempf John Kempf is the founder of Advancing Eco Agriculture (AEA).
