THE TROUBLE WITH PESTS
INTRODUCTION– The prospect of hunger and starvation is a
powerful motivation in adjusting attitude towards what is food and what is a pest.
THE TROUBLE WITH PESTS - Moore 6
WHAT ARE PESTS?
• Pests are unwanted plants and animals.• Any living thing that negatively affects
human interests.
THE TROUBLE WITH PESTS - Moore 7
Human Interests
• (1) a loss of resources such as agricultural crops, food and property damage, and damage to lawns and gardens;
• (2) agents of disease; and • (3) sources of annoyance and discomfort.
THE TROUBLE WITH PESTS - Moore 8
WHAT ARE PESTS?
• The most unwelcome pests from a public health perspective tend to include arthropods and rodents.
THE TROUBLE WITH PESTS - Moore 9
WHAT ARE PESTS
• The arthropods (phylum Arthropoda) are invertebrate animals with jointed and paired appendages, a chitinous exoskeleton, and segmented bodies.
• It is the largest animal phylum with over 700,000 species (Fig. 6-1a,b)

WHAT ARE PESTS
• Insects, ticks and mites are involved in the majority of important human vector-borne diseases, and most of these diseases cannot be prevented by vaccines or chemotherapy.
THE TROUBLE WITH PESTS - Moore 13
WHAT ARE PESTS
• Early success in the control of insect vectors has been met with reversals as:– (1) insects have developed resistance to
insecticides; – (2) insect control programs have been halted or
underfunded;
THE TROUBLE WITH PESTS - Moore 14
WHAT ARE PESTS
• Early success in the control of insect vectors has been met with reversals as:– (3) the use of less expensive pesticides such as DDT
have been reduced because of environmental concerns and political pressures;
– (4) the combination of poverty and overpopulation has lead to poor sanitation with greater opportunity for insect proliferation;
THE TROUBLE WITH PESTS - Moore 15
WHAT ARE PESTS
• Early success in the control of insect vectors has been met with reversals as:– (5) destruction of forested areas has eliminated
natural insect predators; and – (6) climate changes, including warming trends,
has promoted increases in some insect populations.
THE TROUBLE WITH PESTS - Moore 16
What Are Pests?
• In order to develop workable biological, physical, or chemical controls, it is critical to understand the biology and mechanisms for the spread of disease by these organisms.
THE TROUBLE WITH PESTS - Moore 17
INSECTS AND OTHER ARTHROPODS
• General Structure and Development– Most insects start their life cycle with the
fertilization of an egg, and they pass through either a complete or incomplete metamorphosis.
THE TROUBLE WITH PESTS - Moore 18
General Structure and Development
• Incomplete metamorphosis – Refers to insects such as roaches, body lice, and
grasshoppers, that go through three developmental stages including egg, nymph, and adult stages.
THE TROUBLE WITH PESTS - Moore 19
General Structure and Development
• Complete metamorphosis– Mosquitoes, flies, and butterflies go through
complete metamorphosis and pass through four developmental stages including egg, larvae, pupa, and adult stages.
THE TROUBLE WITH PESTS - Moore 20
General Structure and Development
• Molting• Exoskeleton• Spiracles

General Structure and Development
• The hardened outer body wall of the exoskeleton may be covered with hairs, scales, or spines, and is normally divided into segments joined by flexible intersegmental structures (Fig. 6-2).
THE TROUBLE WITH PESTS - Moore 22
Fig. 6-2
THE TROUBLE WITH PESTS - Moore 23
General Structure and Development
• Biological Vector– In many instances, the microbial disease agents
go through a developmental stage in the vector involving sexual reproduction (i.e., malaria).
– In these instances, the vector is known as a biological vector.
THE TROUBLE WITH PESTS - Moore 24
Bedbugs and Kissing Bugs• Insects belonging to this
category have three pairs of jointed legs, sucking mouth parts, wings or wing pads, a segmented proboscis, and belong to the order Hemiptera.
