Introduction

This pocket IPM scouting guide for woody landscape plants was designed for field use. It contains information to help identify and manage common insects, mites and their injury, diseases, abiotic plant health problems, damage caused by animals, and common beneficial insects. It contains phenological indicator plants to use for monitoring pest insect stages. It is not intended to be all inclusive; there are many more pests than this guide can cover within its limited number of pages. References for more detailed information are listed within the guide. In addition to those, several comprehensive guides are listed below. Specific pesticides are not listed in this guide. Recommendations change frequently as new products become available and older ones are taken off the market. We suggest you contact your local Extension educator for current recommendations.
