Re: ongoing insects.- PREDATOR NEMATODES

From: "Donald Burns" donburns at macconnect.com> on 2002.01.28 at 15:38:37(8081) Marc, There used to be a place somewhere in the midwest called the Bug Factory. This place sold predator insects. I had a URL at one time but no longer. You may want to search for this place. Also try pointing your browser at this site: http://www.nysaes.cornell.edu/ent/biocontrol/ There is some interesting stuff there.
