So far this month I have been asked by various law firms to appear as their expert witness in three separate instances. One case involves a tree that broke and fell through the roof of a house and permanently disfiguring a man who was asleep in his bed. Another case involves a power company who was forced to over prune the owners trees so as to clear the easement space around their wires. The most recent case involves an accidental death caused by a fallen tree limb across a primary road.

So what? All of these cases will cost considerable money and distress to the tree owners and could have been prevented. The care of trees is seldom considered because they are perceived as large trouble free plants growing in concert with lawns and gardens that require constant care- until one comes crashing down. A visit from a certified arborist at least once per year is inexpensive, get to know one.

The truth is there is no simple list of “green” products. While it might seem remarkable any marketer can call their product “green”. Be careful when you hire a pest control or lawn service!! Ask questions. Be sure you are getting what you are paying for.

As many of you know, the bed bugs have been making a big comeback. The Michigan Pest Control Association (MPCA) has been working with the Michigan Department of Community Health, Michigan Department of Agriculture and Michigan Bed Bug Work Group to put together a training program for public officials, general public, housing authorities and others. The program is designed to be an informational training on bed bugs including their biology, how to inspect for them and some of the current treatments available for their control.

The first of these meetings is being held in Detroit on December 14th 2009. There are plans in the works to consider doing 2 other training sessions in Grand Rapids and Lansing areas. I have been invited as a participant in this event and will keep everyone informed on the details once I have further information.
