The 2003 Commercial Landscape and Turfgrass Pest Management Handbook will be available for purchase in December 2002. This handbook contains the Uni-versity of Illinois Extension recommendations for the control of weeds, diseases, and insect pests on professionally maintained turf, trees, shrubs, and flowers. It is written for the professional landscaper, golf course superintendent, lawn-care professional, arborist, and other commercial horticulturists. It replaces the 2001 edition of the same title.

The handbook will be available both in paper form and on searchable CD. The printed form will cost $15 per copy, $25 for the CD, and $32 for the set of both. It will be available through your local Extension of-fice or by calling (217)333-2007 and requires an addi-tional postage and handling charge. It will also be available at Pesticide Applicator Training Clinics and other Extension meetings this winter.
