Landscaping for Insects
Public Welcome Free Event Program/Speaker Presentation Wheelchair Accessible Public Restroom Free Public Parking Drinking Fountains
Worldwide insects and other invertebrates are in decline, pressures from invasive species, climate change and loss of habitat are real issues for even our smallest animals. Dr. Kerry Katovich, Entomologist at UW-Whitewater, will explore the ways we can make our yards havens for insects. You’ll learn how to maintain invertebrate habitats on a very small scale, such as leaving a dead piece of timber on the ground, a patch of dead plant stalks from last year, or an open patch of sand. He will also discuss larger scale actions homeowner can take to protect insects.
Dr. Kerry Katovich teaches biology, ecology and entomology courses. HIs primary work is focused on a large group of scarab beetles called the Macrodactylini. He also has interests in several other beetle, true bug and fly groups.
