Vineland hosted two workshops with 47 attendees in Leamington, ON on May 16 and May 17.
The purpose: to teach greenhouse growers and IPM practitioners how to correctly identify thrips species that may occur on their farm. This includes common species such as western flower thrips, onion thrips and Echinothrips but also exotic species more often encountered in Ontario.
