Welcome to Florida: EP30: Sludge and bugs

Craig Pittman and Chadd Scott begin by discussing Craig’s latest story for the Florida Phoenix, which focuses on a toxic sludge disposal facility in Lakeland, aptly called the BS Ranch, that has neighbors upset and is looking to renew its permit to handle 5,000 tons of sludge PER DAY! From there, Dr. Roberto M. Pereira joins us. He specializes in urban entomology, conducting research on different aspects of the biology and control of cockroaches, ants, bed bugs, flies, mosquitoes and other insects that live in and around houses and other human structures. He earned a Ph.D. in entomology from the University of Florida. #stpetecatalyst #tampabay #radio
