Welcome to the Big Bug Hunt 2017 international research project newsletter! | ||||||||
The Big Bug Hunt relies on accurate reports from gardeners across the
country to track when and where bugs appear and spread. Our identification guides
are a great way to check what you’ve seen. But letting us know when you
saw your bug could help to further improve the accuracy of your report.
Big Bug Hunters can now do exactly that. Go to www.BigBugHunt.com as usual to report your bug. Let us know what you saw and which plant you saw it on. You now also have the option to add the date you spotted your bug from a drop-down list. Or just leave it set to ‘today’. Our researchers have confirmed that knowing the date that a bug appears is crucial in predicting how it spreads. This may be a very simple addition, but it will significantly improve the final pest warning system under development. Take a look for yourself – and please keep your reports coming! |
