Votes:0 Banana Slug Ariolimax columbianus Here's a photo peek of this native shell-less mollusk! Banana Slug are Mollusks, which means they are soft-bodied with no visible skeleton. They also belong to the class Gastropoda, which can be recognized by having a muscular foot, a mantle with a cavity, a meaty hump on their back, and a radula (or sand-paper-like grinding mouth parts). They are Pulmonates, which means they have a small lung inside their bodies which opens to the outside with a pneumostone . Banana Slugs are the second largest slug in the world, growing up to 25 cm long. They are so named because very often their coloring resembles a banana, bright yellow body with black spots.

Votes:0 Bed Bugs Bed bugs are in the insect family Cimicidae and include three species that attack people. Problems with bed bug infestations used to be quite severe, but with the use of DDT after World War II the incidence of these pests has been greatly reduced, although infestations still do occur. Currently this insect can be a pest wherever sanitary conditions are primitive, or if there are birds or mammals nesting on or near a house. Crowded and dilapidated housing can also facilitate the insect's movement between residences. IDENTIFICATION AND LIFE CYCLE Adult bed bugs are oval, wingless, about 0.2 inch long, and rusty red or mahogany in color. Their bodies are flattened, they have well-developed antennae, their compound eyes are small, and the area behind the head has a leaflike expansion Read More Go to Site

Votes:0 Bees, Ants, and Wasps BEES, ANTS, AND WASPS Wasps, ants, and bees all belong to the Order Hymenoptera. Most of them lead solitary lives and do not sting. Most are beneficial in that they feed on pest insects and spiders. We generally associate these insects with painful stings. The stinger is simply a modified ovipositor (egg laying tube). Being stung by a wasp or bee usually only causes localized pain. In some cases, though, people have allergic reactions that can be life threatening. Most of the time these insects do not seek out humans or pets to sting. They attack only if provoked.

Votes:0 Boxelder bugs often invade buildings, especially during the warm days of autumn, to seek sheltered sites for overwintering. They are attracted to lights and will readily fly in open doors and windows. Indoors, these bugs create a nuisance by their presence, produce a foul odor when crushed, and may stain curtains with fecal matter. Outdoors, they can be found in large numbers on the sides of trees, buildings and other structures. Large populations are often correlated with long, hot, dry summers. During warm winter and spring days, they may become active, moving from their hiding places into living spaces. Although they do not cause damage to buildings, clothing, food or humans, boxelder populations can be a nuisance.

Description: These "bugs" are black in color with an orange banding occurring around the margins of the sclerotized portion of their hemelytra (front wings). They are approximately 1/2" in length as adults. This pest uses its piercing-sucking mouth parts to feed on foliage in the spring which can cause some distortion to the newly emerging foliage but they primarily feed on the seeds. In the late summer and early fall, however, adult boxelder bugs will congregate, sometimes by the thousands, on the sides of buildings which they later try to Read More Go to Site

Votes:0 Garden Bits / Main Index / previous / next Diptera by Valerie (September 5, 2000) For those readers unfamiliar with taxonomic nomenclature, Diptera is the name of the order of insects containing flies, mosquitoes, gnats and midges. Characteristics include a three-part development after hatching (larva, pupa, adult) and one pair of wings. The second pair of wings has evolved into a pair of balancing organs called halteres. The first insects pictured are maggots. This is not the typical looking yucky white blow-fly or house fly maggot that is found in garbage and decaying flesh, but a predatory syrphid fly larva. Syrphid flies are also called flower or drone flies, and the adults of many species resemble bees. They are also called hover flies because of their very efficient aerial abilities.

Votes:0 BACK TO 'Minibeasts. Net' Index Page How many legs? A centipede is not an insect. Insects have six legs. The word 'centipede' suggests that centipedes have one hundred legs. This is not true. Most centipedes have less than fifty legs. If you look at the picture of the centipede, you can see that the body of a centipede has lots of small segments. Most of these segments have a pair of legs. When a centipede grows, it grows new body segments and new legs. So the bigger the centipede, the more legs it has. Where are centipedes found? In Australia, centipedes can be found in most places. They live in forests and in deserts. They live under rocks or in cracks in between rocks. People don't often see centipedes because the little animals are usually active at night. Hunting Because centipedes ha Read More Go to Site

However, insects can be distinguished from other invertebrates by their having three body parts (head, thorax and abdomen), six-legs, antennae, compound eyes and a hard outer casing made of chitin. Most insects have wings in some form, occasionally vestigial in nature, but some of the more advanced insects, which have evolved social living, have casts which have no wings at all (i.e. workers).

Votes:0 Fleas , Ticks , and Mosquitoes (click on any of the above to jump to that insect) Fleas This module is intended to serve as a source of basic information needed to implement an integrated pest management program for fleas. Any pest management plan or activity must be formulated within the framework of the management zones where it will be implemented. Full consideration must be given to threatened and endangered species, natural and cultural resources, human health and safety, and the legal mandates of the individual parks. Recommendations in this module must be evaluated and applied in relation to these broader considerations. Although there are over 250 species of fleas described in North America (Pratt 1957), only a few are commonly encountered by humans with enough frequency to be cons Read More Go to Site
Votes:0 Fleas and Disease Fleas are pests of humans and domestic animals all over the world. World wide there are more than 2,200 species of fleas. Fleas prefer the blood of pets. Fleas transmit diseases such as plague, typhus, and tularemia to humans. The plague or black death is still found in some western states where rodent populations serve as a reservoir for the disease organisms and where several flea species serve as vectors of the disease to people and pets. The greatest risk to humans exists at urban/rural interfaces, parks and recreation areas. Murine or endemic typhus can be transmitted from rats to humans, primary by the oriental rat flea. This disease occasionally occurs in the Southwest and in the Gulf states. FLEA CONTROL To successfully control fleas, treat the inside of the home Read More Go to Site

Votes:0 The Indian meal moth, Pyralis farinalis (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), is the most common insect pest of grain products stored in the home pantry in Rhode Island. Larvae seen on ceilings and counters are often the first indication of a problem, and adults may be seen flying throughout the house, particularly in the evening. Larvae feed on grain, dried fruit and nuts, cereal products, and even undried floral arrangements and wreaths with seeds. Description: The Indian meal moth has a wing span of about 18-20 mm (3/4 inch). The outer two-thirds of the wings are bronze to reddish-brown, while the inner third is a grayish white. The larvae (caterpillars) are about 12 mm (1/2 inch) long when mature. They are a dirty white color, sometimes exhibiting pink or green hues, depending on the food they hav Read More Go to Site

Votes:0 Instructions Print out an Insects Field Journal page Let's go on an insect hunt! Think of some places near your home where you might be able to find some insects. Try to find at least three different insects and draw a picture of each one. Before you go too close to an insect, ask your adult helper if it is okay, remember not all insects are friendly. Most insects can move very quickly so once you see an interesting one, you might want to spend some time watching it and then draw it from memory. As you are drawing, you might want to think about these questions: Where did you find these insects? How would you describe this insect using words? How would you describe its body? legs? wings?

Votes:0 Facts | Control | Trapping Back to Insects Dry Storage Pest Facts Dry storage pests compete with humans for food during both the pre-harvest and post-harvest periods. Direct losses from pests result from the actual consumption and contamination. Dry storage pests can infest grain at the grain mill, the processor, the warehouse, the distributor, the retail store, the home and the trailers and railcars in which the grain and food products are transported. Dry storage pests can also aid in the distribution of fungus spores. Some of these fungi produce mycotoxins in food, including aflatoxins, which are toxic to the liver and can cause certain cancers. Control Control varies with the type of facility, the pest species, the type of food supporting the infestation and the legal and economic meth Read More Go to Site
Votes:0 Lions and Tigers in the Sand (An electronic reprint of Entomology Notes #1, copyright MichiganEntomological Society) One usually thinks of sandy areas as barren wastelands where nothinglives. Not so! Among the fascinating creatures adapted to the sandy habitats of fieldand shore are the ant-lions and tiger beetles. These insects are nomads thatprey upon the unwary travelers that venture into their desert. Although sometiger beetles are striped and vaguely appear tiger-like, the cat-like names ofboth insects are more properly derived from their predatory nature and agressive behavior. The larval ant-lion (Fig. 1) is well adapted to its existence in the sand,dwelling in a kind of "fox-hole" where it lies in ambush to sieze its victims. This "fox-hole" is in reality a pitfall that entr Read More Go to Site

Votes:0 Minibeast Profiles: Ants, Bees and
Wasps by Gary A. Dunn, M.S., F.R.E.S., Director of Education Just about everyone recognizes an ant when they see one. They are usually
yellowish, reddish, brownish, or black in color, and they have a narrowly
constricted, "hourglass" waist, and elbowed antennae. All ants (family
Formicidae) are social insects. They live in colonies that are composed of
three groups (called castes): queens, males, and workers. The queens and
males are the primary reproductives and are responsible for the reproduction
and dispersal of the species (and so at special times in their lives they
are winged). After mating the male reproductives usually die, while the queen
constructs a small nest which she will seldom, if ever, leave for the rest
of her life. The non-winged worke Read More Go to Site

Some of theses pests cannot survive inside for a long period of time and may die before first being discovered. Here is a list of some of the most common pests that may find their way inside a structure Cricket - Crickets can be distinguished from their relative the grasshopper by the way the wings are carried. The cricket will keep its wings folded around the body whereas the grasshopper will carry them folded and above itself.

[ General Information ] [ Life History ] [ Management ] [ Other Resources ] White Grubs (COLEOPTERA: Scarabaeidae) General Information White grubs are turf pests found throughout North Carolina. It is not uncommon to find 10 or more grubs per square foot feeding on grass roots. Heavily infested turf wilts or dies, often leaving the lawn feeling soft and spongy. Grubs may feed for several months before any turf damage becomes visible. Severely damaged turf may be rolled back like a carpet because its root system has been destroyed.

Votes:0 Apunte aqu? para versi?n en Espa?ol [ X ] Integrated Pest Management (IPM) The roots of IPM can be traced to the late 1880s when "ecology" was identified as the foundation of scientific plant protection. The advent of modern synthetic insecticides in the mid 1940s resulted in a shift of focus to pesticide technology. Over the next 30 years, recognition of the limitations, and often detrimental consequences of over reliance on insecticides, led to the formulation of the concepts of IPM. In 1972, President Nixon formally committed the U.S. government to the development and promotion of IPM. In reality, pesticide-based pest control still predominates U.S. agriculture. However, biologically intensive control technologies are increasingly displacing agrochemically intensive technologi Read More Go to Site

Votes:0 Triatoma protracta Western Conenose, Kissing Bug REDUVIIDAE Description A kiss in not a kiss if it is inflicted instead of offered, as is the case with one local species of assassin bug called the Western Conenose, Triatoma protracta . This 3/4-inch, brown-black nocturnal insect, whose wings form a distinctive "X" when folded over the abdomen , also goes by the name of the "kissing bug" or, as it is known in Latin America, "vinchuca." The kissing bug label comes from the insect's ability to steal a blood meal by painlessly piercing the lips, eyelids or ears of a sleeping human victim. The real problem is that during the feeding process, the bug injects its saliva into the victim, which can result in anaphylactic shock to persons sensitive to the bite. In rare cases, an individual might con Read More Go to Site

It is covered with brown hair that lays down all over its body like fur. Many of these hairs have poison glands underneath them. Touching this caterpillar causes a VERY painful sting. Quickly wash the sting area to remove any left-over spines. This poison protects the caterpillar from birds, lizards, and cats. Io Moth Caterpillars ( Automeris io ) are 2 to 3 inches long. They are bright green with lots of green spines. They have pink and white stripes on their sides. The spines can really sting if you touch them.
