Book Description

August 20, 1997
Truman's Scientific Guide to Pest Control Operations, fifth edition, is known as "The Bible of the Industry" -- it provides comprehensive information on the business of controlling insects, other arthropods and vertebrate pests in homes, business establishments, industrial plants and municipal buildings, as well as in outdoor areas frequented by man. It also provides resource material for those employed in urban and industrial pest control. For more than 50 years, pest control operators and students of entomology have relied on this book for its basic sceintific information as well as its guidelines for practical solutions to pest control problems. It serves as an indispensable guide to acquiring knowledge and meeting the legal, social, and economic challenges and opportunities that affect the manner in which the task of pest control is performed. Fully illustrated and indexed, it provides specific information about pesticides, regulations and new techniques.

This review is from: Truman's Scientific Guide to Pest Control Operations (Hardcover)
As a pest control educator, I have LOTS of pest control reference books. "Truman's Scientific Guide" is my most used book. While others may have some higher levels of specificity at times, Truman's is the best overall!
