Research interests
I have expertise in host-range testing and the development
of insect rearing techniques. I have successfully reared biocontrol agents to
control weeds such as Japanese honeysuckle, old man’s beard, tradescantia,
field horsetail, tutsan, Darwin’s barberry, moth plant, horehound and alligator weed. I am
currently working on new projects to control Sydney golden wattle, oxygen weed and wild ginger. I have keen interest in insect pest management, such as the introduction of several biological agents for controlling wasps.
