11 Bed Bugs are Back! Bed bugs look like small dark buttons with legs. Young bed bugs nymphs look like small adults. Eggs are tiny, white, with a coating that sticks to your stuff. Bed bugs live in cracks and crevices of bed frames, floors, walls, furniture, knickknacks or radios, travel alarms, luggage. They can live a year without a meal. Bed bugs feed on you as you sleep. Bites may look like a rash or welts or you may not notice them at all. The good news is that bed bugs don t transmit disease. Explore our handouts for more information. return to: graphic design: large pieces

12 Partners in the Illinois Asian Longhorned Beetle Cooperative Eradication Program have deregulated former ALB quarantine areas but cannot declare Illinois officially cleared of ALB until it is assured that none of these beetles remain in Chicago. If there is a beetle out there, you can help the ALB Program find it. During winter, look for oozing sap, sawdustlike material (called frass), and 5/8-inch, perfectly round beetle exit holes on tree trunks and branches. During spring and summer 2007, look for frass, sap flows, the round exit holes, and impressions in the bark where eggs have been laid. In summer, look for adult beetles. Searches should take place all over Chicago, not just in and around former quarantine areas. Search and report the results to the ALB Program. Check out the back panel of this leaflet for a handy search guide and contact information. WITH YOUR HELP, WE LL KNOW IF CHICAGO IS READY TO BE DECLARED ALB FREE! Since the insect discovered in the Ravenswood section of Chicago was confirmed as an invasive ALB in July 1998, Illinois has proved a model for what can be accomplished when government at all levels, along with industry, businesses, educators, advocates, and citizens, work together against an invasive pest. We are close, but we are not there yet. The ALB will not be declared eradicated in Illinois until the ALB Cooperative Eradication Program is convinced that the chemical tree treatments, ground surveys, bucket-truck surveys, and infested-tree removals have yielded the expected outcome: Every last ALB in from Chicago USDA found and destroyed. In 2006, the last ALB-regulated area in Chicago was deregulated, allowing free movement of wood, nursery stock, and woody debris throughout the area. This year, ALB Program officials are busy doing final surveys throughout Chicagoland on the hardwood tree species preferred by the ALB. These surveys are intended to ensure that eradication can be declared sometime after the summer of ALB larva U.S. Department of Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service In Illinois, the Asian Longhorned Beetle Cooperative Eradication Program is comprised of the U.S. Department of Agriculture s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service and Forest Service, along with the City of Chicago and the Illinois Department of Agriculture. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) prohibits discrimination in all its programs and activities on the basis of race, color, national origin, age, disability, and where applicable, sex, marital status, familial status, parental status, religion, sexual orientation, genetic information, political beliefs, reprisal, or because all or part of an individual s income is derived from any public assistance program. (Not all prohibited bases apply to all programs.) Persons with disabilities who require alternative means ALB near for communication of program information (Braille, large print, audiotape, exit holeetc.) should contact USDA s TARGET Center at (202) (voice and TDD). To file a complaint of discrimination, write to USDA, Director, Office of Civil Rights, 1400 Independence Avenue, S.W., Washington, D.C , or call (800) (voice) or (202) (TDD). USDA is an equal opportunity provider and employer.

Program Aid No THE ALB IS DISTINCTIVE: Large about 1.5 inches long Shiny black with white spots Long antennae banded in black and white Feet with a slightly bluish-white tinge LOOK FOR: Frass Exit holes Egg sites ADULT ALBS CAN BE FOUND ANYWHERE DURING THE SPRING AND SUMMER MONTHS, NOT JUST ON TREES. LOOK ON: Light posts Park benches Car hoods Patio furniture Walls Sidewalks Whether or not any signs of an ALB are observed, please report the search results on the Web by following the directions at < You can also call the ALB Cooperative Eradication Program and report a search at between 8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. Integrated Pest Management Six Steps of IPM IPM combines six steps and six tactics into an overall strategy. These six steps are essential to successful IPM. The IPM tactics you use depend on the pest situation. This way we continue to learn, adjust, and improve IPM. Six Steps of IPM Six Tactics for Control 1 Pest ID: What Is It? 1 Cultural, such as Crop Rotation, Pruning 2 Pest Biology: How and Where Does It Live? 2 Physical, such as Screens 3 Monitoring: How Many Are There Now? 3 Genetic, such as Resistant Plants Action Threshold: 4 Are There Enough to Cause Damage? 4 Biological, such as Parasitoids, Predators 5 Control: What Can I Do to Get Rid of It? 5 Chemical, such as Pesticides 6 Evaluate Control: Did It Solve the Pest Problem? 6 Regulatory, such as Quarantines ask: Is the pest situation under control? Did the farmer save their crop? Did your tactics save money? Did they protect the environment? Did it improve our health? YOU CAN HELP. CAN YOU FIND THE LAST ASIAN LONG- HORNED BEETLE (ALB) IN CHICAGO? WE HOPE NOT! FIND THE LAST ALB IN CHICAGO! BE A BEETLE BUSTER: SEARCH AND REPORT FIND THE LAST ASIAN LONGHORNED BEETLE: Countdown to Eradication For more information Log onto and click on the Asian longhorned beetle under Hot Issues. IPM is about fewer sprays for better pest control. What are sprays? What are pests? Insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, etc., commonly referred to as pesticides pyrethroids, Roundup, captan Sevin, weed & feed, lime sulfur flea collars, roach baits, wasp spray Insects and mites, weeds, and plant diseases that hinder, damage, or destroy our food supply, crops, and farm animals our lawns and gardens our pets, buildings, and belongings return to: graphic design: large pieces
