Forest Pest First Detector Training

Past event
Apr 18, 2017, 9 AM to 2:30 PM

Enjoy spending time outdoors? Concerned about the health of Vermont’s forests?

Then we need YOUR help! Come volunteer as a Forest Pest First Detector! A FREE training will be held on Tuesday, April 18th from 9:30am- 2:30pm at the Waterbury Municipal Office.

We are training volunteers to:
(1) inform the public about the tangible threat Vermont’s primary pests (namely the Asian longhorned beetle, emerald ash borer, and hemlock woolly adelgid) pose
(2) prepare their communities for a response in the event of an infestation, and
(3) screen potential pest sightings

This is a free training, but please RSVP to Gwen at Gwen.kozlowski@UVM.edu or 802-651-8343.
