Douglas S. Richmond studies insects and pests that affect turfgrass, crops, and specialty agricultural systems such as mint and blueberries. His work includes developing methods to sample and manage pests like billbugs, Japanese beetles, Asiatic garden beetles, and spotted wing drosophila, as well as evaluating turfgrass varieties and management practices that reduce pest pressure while supporting pollinators and soil health. This research is typically applied, aiming to help farmers and turf managers make evidence-based pest control decisions.
