Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lizard Keeper's Manual by Philippe de Vosjoli intends to provide real detailed information for all devoted lizard owners who wish to provide the very best of care for their pets. The author states in the foreword, "In terms of the herpetoculture of reptiles, the keeping of lizards is probably the most challenging." He explains that "Lizards demonstrate a great diversity of adaptations and specializations," and thus keepers need the very best advice and soundest information possible, which is what The Lizard Keeper's Manual provides to its readers.In over 200 pages, this colorful volume analyzes the needs of insect-eating lizards, of which there are literally thousands of species. Some lizards (the ones with generic housing and dietary requirements) are easy to maintain, though others have very specific needs (in terms of temperature, diet, humidity, etc.). As stated in the introduction, "The purpose of this book is to give herpetoculturists, both beginners and those more experienced, as well as pet industry personnel, a broad base of knowledge that will allow them to successfully keep a variety of insect-eating lizards." Colorfully illustrated, The Lizard Keeper's Manual provides chapter-length coverage on the following topics: selecting the right species of lizard, locating and purchasing a healthy lizard, quarantine and acclimation, types of vivaria, enclosures, vivarium design, heating, cooling/hibernation, lighting, humidity/ventilation, feeding/nutrition, handling, shipping/receiving, and diseases and disorders. The author recommends a number of excellent species for keepers, including geckos, chameleons, skinks, agamids, monitors, anoles, basilisks, as well as other large and miniature species. The chapter titled "Essential Concepts" is a crash course in herpetology, offering the reader an overview of the ontogeny (life stages), climatic and landscape factors, diet, water, and diseases of the lizard family. The chapter "General Guidelines for Popular Insect-Eating Lizards," which covers over thirty different lizards in terms of their requirements and descriptions, is an outstanding resource for lizard keepers looking to expand the population of their vivaria. Appendices and index included.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An informative, entertaining, and beautifully illustrated look at the beloved firefly For centuries, the beauty of fireflies has evoked wonder and delight. Yet for most of us, fireflies remain shrouded in mystery: How do fireflies make their light? What are they saying with their flashing? And what do fireflies look for in a mate? In Silent Sparks, noted biologist and firefly expert Sara Lewis dives into the fascinating world of fireflies and reveals the most up-to-date discoveries about these beloved insects. From the meadows of New England and the hills of the Great Smoky Mountains, to the rivers of Japan and mangrove forests of Malaysia, this beautifully illustrated and accessible book uncovers the remarkable, dramatic stories of birth, courtship, romance, sex, deceit, poison, and death among fireflies. The nearly two thousand species of fireflies worldwide have evolved in different ways—and while most mate through the aerial language of blinking lights, not all do. Lewis introduces us to fireflies that don't light up at all, relying on wind-borne perfumes to find mates, and we encounter glow-worm fireflies, whose plump, wingless females never fly. We go behind the scenes to meet inquisitive scientists who have dedicated their lives to understanding fireflies, and we learn about various modern threats including light pollution and habitat destruction. In the last section of the book, Lewis provides a field guide for North American fireflies, enabling us to identify them in our own backyards and neighborhoods. This concise, handy guide includes distinguishing features, habits, and range maps for the most commonly encountered fireflies, as well as a gear list. A passionate exploration of one of the world's most charismatic and admired insects, Silent Sparks will inspire us to reconnect with the natural world.

I can show you how to get rid of bed bugs without losing your mind, money or dignity. The truth is that bed bugs are not caused by poor sanitation, and they have nothing whatsoever to do with social or economic status. They are cunning hitchhikers, and anyone who is in the wrong place at the wrong time is susceptible to an infestation. They can thrive in the finest five-star hotels, well run hospitals, and million-dollar homes. I know firsthand the devastation bed bugs can have on your physical and emotional well-being. You can read all about my personal struggle with bed bugs right inside this book. After I won the battle in my own home, I used my knowledge and experience to teach thousands of other families how to get rid of bed bugs in their homes. I am here to tell you that you, too, can get rid of them yourself-quickly, safely, and inexpensively. I will share with you in this book everything I wished someone had shared with me. I will give you advanced techniques your exterminator doesn't even know about. I'll cover all the details the websites and videos you'll find on the internet leave out. I will spare you the weeks of trial and error that I went through during my first battle with bed bugs. Then I'll teach you, step-by-step, everything I have learned studying bed bugs and fighting infestations for the past 5 years. This book will provide you with everything you'll need to get rid of bed bugs as quickly and inexpensively as possible. You stand at a turning point.

To ensure they work you will need to take action, following the instructions precisely. If you have the courage and resolve, this book will provide you with a proven, step-by-step course of action to get rid of bed bugs once and for all. -Chipp Marshal "I was delighted to hear that Mr. Marshal was publishing his methods on how to get rid of bed bugs. As a real estate agent and property manager, I see bed bug infestations more frequently with each passing year. Many of the affected families cannot afford to hire an exterminator. Parents are helpless and their children suffer. For some, there is no escape from this epidemic and it is absolutely heartbreaking to watch. This book is being published by the right person at the right time. It is reassuring to know that his methods will now be available to millions of people around the world." -Christina Murray
