Article Abstract:

John Burger, also known as the Bug Man, is an entomologist at the Univ of New Hampshire. In the late 1970's he was asked to abate the blackfly population in two resort areas. After early methods, such as destroying larvae with stiff brushes, failed, he found a bacterium used by Israelis to kill mosquitoes was effective.
