Biological Control of Tansy Ragwort

Purpose

A small cage will be placed over a cluster of tansy ragwort to observe the behavior of a flea beetle (Longitarsus jacobaeae) under consideration for control of tansy ragwort. If this beetle shows promise they may need other areas in the forest to further
