This sequel to the authorsa "Ask the Bugman" (2002) contains more
valuable information on how to identify assorted insects and
arthropods and the best ways to keep them out of your house, all
presented with the wry humor that fans of Fagerlundas nationally
distributed newspaper column have come to treasure. Fagerlund and
Strange are proponents of Integrated Pest Management rather than
the technique they label aSpray and Praya used by most
exterminating businesses. Anyone concerned about the health effects
of pesticides will want to follow the useful advice in "The Bugman
on Bugs," including specific information on what kinds of
substances and techniques work best for particular pests.
In addition to illustrated chapters on roaches, ants, flies,
spiders, centipedes and scorpions, fleas, lice, bed bugs, mice,
termites, and other kinds of pests, the authors discuss human
reactions to these creatures, turning their attention both to
phobias and to the place of insects in our religious and spiritual
lives. Amazing pest control tales are sprinkled throughout the book
(have you thought about greasing your linens with hog lard to make
yourself disgusting even to fleas?), as well as peculiar facts and
even a recipe for sautA(c)ed termites.
