This one-hour course, led by John Agnew, PhD candidate from New Mexico State University, explores advanced strategies and emerging challenges in scorpion control, with a focus on integrated pest management (IPM). Participants will gain insight into the biology and behavior of scorpions - particularly the Arizona Bark Scorpion - and understand their medical significance. The course examines effective detection, exclusion, sanitation, and insecticide strategies, including research-backed methods like Slick Barrier applications and synergist dusts. It also addresses misconceptions around biological controls and highlights new developments in repellents and pesticide resistance. This training is ideal for pest professionals working in the desert Southwest who seek reliable, science-driven solutions to scorpion infestations.
