Submitting Specimens:
1. Extension Agents: please use the Plant Diagnostic Information System (PDIS) to submit specimen information and remember to send the specimen with a print out of the sample summary. Please read the directions for PDIS submission and/or watch the video.
2. Place all specimens in sturdy plastic containers with tight fitting lids that are strong enough to survive mail or courier services. Hard-bodied specimens can be sent to us alive. Aphids, mites, spiders, small flies and larvae need to be sent in the containers with rubbing alcohol or a 50:50 dilution of water and anti-freeze (ethylene glycol). Caterpillars should be flash boiled and then placed in rubbing alcohol.
3. Send specimens to the address found on the left navigation bar of this page.
P.S. To see a list of pests submitted for a county go to Diagnostic Listing.
