Urban entomology focuses on arthropod pests that cause nuisance, economic
damage and public health concerns in residential, commercial and industrial
settings. Fundamental research addresses the behavior, physiology, ecology
and genetics of urban insects, particularly cockroaches, termites and
ants, while applied projects integrate novel and established technologies
with the goal of providing economically feasible and environmentally
sound
management solutions.
