Matthew Gates is back on the line as we prepare for Pestapalooza Illinois coming July 13+14! (Use code GROWCAST)… Matthew joins us for an interesting episode where he is presented a series of True or False questions when it comes to pest and pest control. Matthew gives his take on using soap as an insecticide, aphids switching from one host to another, ladybugs, and more! The lady beetle conversation leads to a whole discussion about predatory insects, how they behave and feed, and how to best keep them alive and happy within your garden. Matthew also discusses the huge project he is working on, a Budworm deep dive content piece, which will be dropping soon!
