We stress that doing so can save your crops and your wallet. This is especially true with biocontrols that for the most part work best preventively or during the very onset of infestation. Since we're here to help folks succeed, putting sticky traps and all of our scouting goods on sale, more people might use and enjoy the benefits of doing things right from the start. They'll all become Super Scouts.]]> http://greenmethods.com/site/weblog/2012/02/massive-pest-scouting-supplies-sale/feed/ http://greenmethods.com/site/weblog/2012/01/colemani-on-sale/ http://greenmethods.com/site/weblog/2012/01/colemani-on-sale/#comments Mon, 23 Jan 2012 05:01:37 +0000 Mike Cherim Site News Specials http://greenmethods.com/site/weblog/2012/01/colemani-on-sale/ Prevention is all the rage -- at this time of year, especially. The thinking is that if you effectively prevent pests you can save yourself some headaches later on. It doesn't always work, though. Sometimes it only delays the onset a few weeks, but generally it's a sound, worthwhile practice. In light of this, and that many growers are "clean" right now, offering an aphid prevention agent is a good idea. Thus, we're offering Aphidius colemani on sale for a limited time.]]> http://greenmethods.com/site/weblog/2012/01/colemani-on-sale/feed/ http://greenmethods.com/site/weblog/2012/01/2012-catalog-available/ http://greenmethods.com/site/weblog/2012/01/2012-catalog-available/#comments Mon, 16 Jan 2012 05:01:30 +0000 Mike Cherim General News Company News http://greenmethods.com/site/weblog/2012/01/2012-catalog-available/ That's right folks: our 2012 Green Methods catalog is now available for consumption. In fact, our catalog's been mailed to our commercial and institutional customers at this time. This mean we've sent one to your business, university, theme park, etc. If this describes you, it's either in your hands -- as we've been told -- or on its way. If you have business but never told us the name, or if you're a home gardener, please look for your copy in March. We decided we'd wait a a couple of months so as to time it better and coincide with the launch of your season of need.]]> http://greenmethods.com/site/weblog/2012/01/2012-catalog-available/feed/ http://greenmethods.com/site/weblog/2012/01/fallacis-for-mites-on-sale/ http://greenmethods.com/site/weblog/2012/01/fallacis-for-mites-on-sale/#comments Mon, 09 Jan 2012 05:01:48 +0000 Mike Cherim Site News Specials http://greenmethods.com/site/weblog/2012/01/fallacis-for-mites-on-sale/ Winter is usually a dry time of the year and one that often sees spider mites raging out of control. Thus, it's a good time to use spider mite predators to prevent or control these pernicious pests. And, since we know all of our customers do the right thing, acting preemptively before pest populations escalate, we're discounting Neoseiulus fallacis -- which just happens to be a great mite prevention agent.]]> http://greenmethods.com/site/weblog/2012/01/fallacis-for-mites-on-sale/feed/
