Hope for Control of Lily Beetles with Dr. Ken Fry

This week we are chatting with Dr. Ken Fry of Old's College in Alberta about his work developing a biological control for Lily Beetle, an introduced pest that is devastating to lily growers in Canada. Check out information on the lily beetle at Olds College Lily Beetle Page You can follow Dr. Fry on his twitter feed @frythebugguy And please participate in the community science initiative by entering your observations of lily beetle (although we sure hope you don't see them!) at the Lily Beetle Tracker *note Dr. Naomi Cappucino at Carleton runs the tracker and was on sabbatical in 2020 which is why it is not showing an update, but she is planning on updating it on her return!
