Urban pests are common all over the world. These include
cockroaches, flies, mosquitoes, bed bugs, ticks, fleas, ants,
termites, rodents and others. These pests thrive in human
structures, where there is food, warmth and places to hide. Urban
pests are one of the leading causes of illnesses in humans due to
allergies, bites, food contamination and phobias. They can also
cause significant damage to property and structures. Knowledge and
training in this field is vital for professional and trainee pest
managers. This book is specifically intended to provide an aid to
such candidates. The book contains 500 multiple-choice questions
(and answers) grouped into the following major topic areas: * The
history of urban entomology * Household pests * Cockroaches * Flies
* Mosquitoes * Bed bugs * Termites * Sporadic pests * Stored
product pests * Vertebrate pests * Pesticides and pesticide
formulations * Handling pesticides * Integrated Pest Control
Produced in a convenient format that can be used at any time in any
place, the book allows the reader to learn and revise the subject
and much more. Its structure allows the study of one topic area at
a time, progressing through a simple introduction followed by key
revision questions, many of which require students to use their
practical knowledge. The answers to each of the questions are
provided at the end with short explanations wherever appropriate.
