Integrated Pest Management Workshop Monday, September 24, 2007 9:30-4:00 Historic Cherry Hill Albany, NY This is a free program! Develop an IPM program for your institution. This day long session is specifically geared toward small institutions with limited staff, and for sites that rely on volunteers for part or all of their collections care, maintenance and housekeeping functions. Previous program participants said this program has "lots of good, practical information..." being "...on site at Cherry Hill gave the opportunity for lots of show and tell." Workshop Highlights: - What is an IPM Program? - Why does your institution need one? - Creating a site-specific plan. - Monitoring, trapping and identification of insects. - How to prevent an infestation. - Bagging and freezing for abatement. You need this training class if you have had an infestation in the past, are currently dealing with an infestation, or if you've never had training to help you identify insect damage in your collection.
