SUMMARY:Webinar: Using Tick Population Dynamics Models to Assess Control Strategies
DESCRIPTION:Don’t miss the Tick IPM Working Group‘s upcoming free webinar presented by Dr. David Allen\, Associate Professor of Biology at Middlebury College. \n  \nTick control strategies have been shown to reduce tick density and\, consequently\, the risk of tick-borne diseases. However\, it is often challenging to assess which strategy is most cost-effective or how its effectiveness varies across ecological or climate settings. Tick population dynamics models offer powerful tools for assessing questions like these\, which would be difficult\, costly\, or infeasible to test empirically. This presentation will demonstrate such applications\, while also addressing the inherent limitations of using theoretical models to answer real-world ecological questions. \n  \nAdvanced Registration is required.

SUMMARY:Uninvited Tenants: Understanding Urban Rodent Behavior Through the Lens of Their World Webinar
DESCRIPTION:This presentation examines the biology and behaviour of the three dominant commensal rodent species in urban environments\, Mus musculus\, Rattus rattus\, and Rattus norvegicus\, through the world each species inhabits. Using video-recorded field observations\, the talk explores how species-specific biology\, neophobia\, and route fidelity drive predictable patterns of pest control equipment detection\, avoidance\, and habituation. The central argument is that equipment avoidance is not random\, it is rooted in rodent biology\, and that understanding it leads to more informed placement\, selection\, and management strategy. \n  \nKurtis Brown\, Associate Certified Entomologist\, and Training Manager for Orkin Canada is the featured speaker. \n  \nThis free webinar is part of the Gulf South VECTOR Center for Training\, Outreach and Resources Webinar Series. Registration is required.
