Pest Control

[peter.webber]

I have recently purchased Don Burkes book on growing organic food and I came upon an interesting article on Bio control for pests. Among the listed sites was Bugs for Bugs:

I had no idea you could buy preditory bugs. It could be useful for controling pests in an aquaponics environment. I just thought I'd pass this along.

Cheers,

Pete.

Hi Pete,

Thanks for that link.

I became aware of the 'Bugs for Bugs' place in Munduberra several years ago.

The idea of integrated pest management is a great one.......particularly for aquaponics where pest control options are so limited.
