| Introduction | Xavier Asbridge, owner of IPM of New Hampshire, is a Paul Smiths College graduate. After college he worked 20 years for the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station where he was involved in the identification and control of pests. He was one of the first in the country to deal with the Asian Longhorned Beetle, surveying CT forests and ports. Xavier also participated in research and control of other invasive species such as Hemlock Woolly Adelgid and Gypsy moth. His supporting role in such projects gave him the opportunity to work with some of the leading scientists in the field.
