110. Scale Insects! (Feat. There Will Be Bugs Podcast)

Check out Ben's Podcast here: https://open.spotify.com/show/2u8pQQEVkUHQj0Cl3robap?si=e3fd3e527f7d422b

Host Bradon Coy speaks with Ben Knowlton, a graduate student at the University of Kentucky, about his research on scale insects and the broader field of landscape ecology. They discuss the evolution of landscape ecology from pest management to the conservation of beneficial insects, Ben's educational journey from plant science to entomology, and the challenges of managing scale insects in urban environments. The conversation delves into the biology and lifecycle of scale insects, their impact on urban landscapes, and integrated pest management strategies that can be employed to control these pests effectively. In this conversation, Ben Knowlton discusses the importance of preventative measures in tree management, contrasting them with reactive approaches. He shares insights about his podcast, 'There Will Be Bugs,' which aims to explore various topics in entomology.
