Ontario Horticultural Trades Foundation & Ontario Turfgrass Research Foundation 
Launch New Pesticide Alternatives Brochure!

With assistance by the Ontario Horticultural Trades Foundation, the OTRF has produced a scientific literature review of alternative pest controls for turf in Ontario. This scientific review was conducted by the University of Guelph, based on scientifically published information prior to 2008. This review will be updated on a continual basis as additional alternatives are scientifically proven and released in scientific journals.

This brochure, intended to be consumer user friendly, has instructions and tips on product application specific to target pests. It also has current recommendations for lawn maintenance on how to out-compete weeds for a healthy lawn. A printed copy is available through the Guelph Turfgrass Institute or Landscape Ontario.
