Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book provides an investigation into the brown tail moth and its close relative, the European pine processionary moth, two non-native species which have recently become established in the United States. Both species pose significant threats to human and plant life and are of great interest to forest entomologists. The brown tail moth is particularly dangerous due to its ability to cause skin irritation with its hairs. The author, an acknowledged expert on invasive forest pests, offers in-depth details on the appearance and life cycles of these pests, the damage they cause, and the most up-to-date methods for their control. The author also provides valuable natural history details and chronicles the spread of these species in the United States over the past century. This book is a valuable resource for land and pest managers dealing with these invasive pests and for homeowners who wish to protect their property from their destructive effects.
