Introduction

The intent of the Forest Health homepage is to present a forest health agent of interest. To start with, I will provide information on two insect pests of greatest impact to Okanagan Shuswap District.

In the future, if there is any pest that is of particular interest to to you, please let me know and I will try and post the information. In the meantime, I will post information as time permits.
