Invasive Forest Pest Workshop Series

There are ongoing considerable concerns for Southern California forests and landscapes due to multiple invasive pests. These pests have attacked and killed hundreds of thousands of trees in Southern California, making it important that land managers, tree-care professionals, and pesticide applicators stay up to date with the latest findings and recommendations regarding these invasive pests. 

Join us for four webinars, every Tuesday in the month of October covering invasive forest and tree pest history, biology, impacts, current infestations, and management strategies.  Stay tuned for news about potential follow up, socially distanced field day(s)!
