Soft cover. Condizione: Near Fine. Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear; appears unread; A backyard viewing guide designed to help prairie gardeners identify insects and learn what effect they have on their plants. With skill, insight, and humor, the authors describe and discuss over one hundred insects, spiders, mites, slugs, and earthworms that frequent prairie gardens. Gardeners learn about bugs' similarities, differences, and life cycles, their collective importance to the health of a garden; diagnosing trouble; cultural controls; and the "Pandora's bottle" of pesticides. Each entry has a "Bug at a Glance" section that summarizes the type of bug, its size, what it looks like, where you find it, when you find it, what it eats, whether it is friend or foe, and what to do about it. This is followed by a more detailed 'bug bio' that elaborates on the bug's life cycle, its habits, and how best to deal with it.
