Garden Guardians
Jane Davenport 2011 (AUS)
At long last: our favourite and Australia's best book on how to identify, attract and look after beneficial insects has been revised and reprinted.
With more than 300 beautiful colour images you will have no trouble in identifying your beneficial garden insect visitors; with the excellent information provided you will discover and learn to harness this truly natural pest control workforce.
This book is not only about correct identification; unlike a field guide or academic text the format is approachable and easily understood by novices. The insight and information here will really move you down the garden path of working with nature, to have a more productive garden with less need for sprays. But rest assured, section 3 gives you plenty of ideas on how to control pest problems using organic methods. Great for any gardener, as an outdoor classroom learning aid and essential for keen organic gardeners/farmers to help distinguish between the pest species and those insects which are beneficial. Full colour. 130pp

Spineless - Dealing with Pests and Pals in Your Home and Backyard
Bronwen Scott 2009 (AUS)
A light-hearted but informative look at the spineless (invertebrate) creatures that may be encountered in your house and garden. This is not your academic oriented key guide, heavy on the pictures and decision making but is a fantastic quick way to spot whether the insect in question is a “Pest” or “Pal”.
Identification starts with “What’s doing this?” a list of the types of damage you might notice. Are there bite marks or skeletonised leaves, holes in the lawn or mulch, lumps and bumps on leaves or bites on your body, holes in paper or fabric? If you get a look at the insect you can then go on to identify it by its general appearance and way of moving – six legs and crawling; flying; hopping or long and thin and wriggling? Once you’ve established whether you’ve got a pest or a pal, there are suggestions for commonsense ways of dealing with it – control measures, traps, or ways to encourage beneficial “pals”. This practical, uniquely Australian “natural history” book will help you very easily identify and learn more about nature in and around your home. 250pp
