Local Composting Business Hosted Insect Seminar

Posted: Updated:

This afternoon crowds were building the soil to bust the bugs.

Morgan Composting hosted the event which drew about 200 people to their location near Sears in Osceola County.

The seminar featured speakers and experts to offer advice on how growers could enrich their soil, and fight insect pests without making the cure worse than the disease.

Host Brad Morgan says many of today's speakers were offering biological solutions to pest problems.

That included enriching soil to the point that it suppresses the harmful insects, without hurting the environment.
