by | Mar 5, 2024 | Ask Annie

Jessica Starcevich has been the company entomologist for Spalding Labs for over 12 years. In Episode 71 I reviewed Spalding Labs’ iconic product, Fly Predators, a pesticide-free solution to fly control. Head over to Episode 71 to hear more about that review! Jessica, who has worked for Spalding Labs since 2011, received her bachelor’s degree with double majors in environmental science and biology, and a minor in history from Illinois College, then obtained her master’s degree from the University of Minnesota in livestock entomology. She now resides in Bartonville, IL, just 20 minutes from her family’s farm, and in her spare time she enjoys taking pictures of insects, insects are her work and hobby! In this episode we discuss all things insects and Spalding Labs, including:

  • What Fly Predators are
  • How to use them in an IMP approach
  • Spalding Labs’ Custom Pest Management Plan
  • And more!

This episode is brought to you by Spalding Labs.
