Pests, Diseases and Beneficials helps the average gardener to identify and deal with those common insects and small animals (such as bugs, beetles, caterpillars, thrips and mites) that are found in every Australian garden.

It offers clear descriptions and full-color images to aid in identifying insects or other organisms, and provides useful advice on how to recognize and treat problems. The book also covers feeding habits, life cycles and insect biology.

This fully updated edition has been expanded to include general garden situations as well as Australian native plants, and provides further information on plant diseases, harmless and beneficial fungi, bacteria and viruses, physiological disorders and problems caused by horticultural mismanagement.
