While some tactics found in the "Alternative Control Guide" can be effective, many have not been extensively tested in home garden. Our goal in highlighting alternatives is to provide you, the home gardener, pest control methods that you can test in your own home garden. To help us, and other gardeners, determine which methods work (and which do not), please let us know about your experience trying a particular alternative. To contact us simply click here to send us an email and let us know what you found. We'll compile your responses to help identify the more promising tactics that can be further evaluated by other gardeners. We look forward to hearing from you!
