Note: Before collecting outside of your property, please ensure you have the proper permissions. Permits are required for collecting insects in State Parks, National Parks, and National Monument lands. Permits are not required for collecting pest insects (such as potato psyllids) in National Forests and Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land. Collecting pest insects is generally permitted in County Parks, roadside easements, and other county-owned properties. However, please check with your local jurisdiction, as this may vary from location to location. If you plan to collect on private property (including UC Reserves), please ensure you have permission from the land owner before proceeding. *
