5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, July 9, 2001

By	Artemis Gems "ChainWeavers.com" (CT) - See all my reviews

If you can get a copy of this book, do so. You'll be doing yourself a favor. This is an excellent book for pest identification in gardens. One caveat-DO NOT FOLLOW THE CONTROL RECOMMENDATIONS. This book was last published in 1976, and the controls are seriously outdated. However, it is still the best book for pest ID's in the garden or around the house available.

5.0 out of 5 stars Solid life cycle information, good crop info, buy it!, August 6, 1997

By A Customer

One of the basic books on serious gardener`s bookcases despite the outdated pesticide recommendations *which should not be followed*. Valuable because of the wide range of insect species described for many, many crops (everything from corn to rubber plants, sage to daisies, roses to lawn grasses) and the life cycle information included make this the best book I've found for figuring out rational methods for pest control. Few drawings, but good descriptions of the species`mean that this book should probably be used in conjunction with a good field guide, like Borror's _Insects_ volume (#19 in Peterson Field Guide Series). A publisher who would update and reissue this volume would be doing gardeners a big favor. Kay Lancaster
