We spent the summer battling Japanese Beetles. We’re keeping a watchful eye out for the Emerald Ash Borer, and now there's a new invasive insect to deal with, the brown marmorated stink bug. Host Charity Nebbe talks with Entomologist Donald Lewis about this new pest and the recent reports of it located in Scott County.
