If you’re outside enjoying the spring sunshine, then chances are, ticks are too. Lead author Claire Gooding (Gries Lab) and researchers are exploring new solutions to repel these harmful critters - tisks which can carry Lyme diseases. Read more on our News page.

Recently had the pleasure of publishing my first paper with some amazing co-authors from the @GriesLab. It's about stable flies and their attraction to microbes from cow skin and it's super gross. Please feel free to check it out if that's your thing 😀 #insects #microbiology

The Gries Lab had a fantastic time at #EntSoc22! We are pleased to have delivered 18 talks, 6 of which placed in the student competition! Thank you very much to the organizers from @EntsocAmerica @CanEntomologist and @EntSocBC!

Then over to @MUVE_ESA, with @emmkovacsss! Her talk "Attraction of horn flies,Haematobia irritans, to cattle host semiochemicals" #EntSoc22 Guess the topic? Mon, Nov 14th at 10:42am Rm205

The Gries lab has been hard at work with numerous prep talk for the #EntSoc22 meeting! At the last few lab meetings we heard from @emmkovacsss, @Saif_Nayani, @sammeraj4, @AndiFischer10, @cegooding, @EmmanuelHung, @EmilyLemke15 and many others not on twitter!

On Friday's meeting we heard from the lab's newest tweeter @emmkovacsss (follow for all things 📯🪰). She was brainstorming ideas for working with these most un-stable flies. #GriesyFridays #ThereWillBeSweetsAgainSoon
