Dill Comments on Pests

James Dill, an entomologist with the University of Maine Cooperative Extension, was interviewed for a Portland Press Herald story about how the warm winter will impact pest populations. Dill said there are some pests, such as mosquitoes, ticks and white grubs, about which he fields more phone calls this time of year, which could pose some problems for homeowners this spring. Dill also gave recommendations on how to deal with the pests.
