Yes, habitat restoration may be the key to increasing Puritan tiger beetle populations in Maryland. A restoration study has been conducted at the Sassafras River Natural Resource Management Area on the Eastern Shore. It has been effective in reducing cliff vegetation by the use of herbicide, and Puritan tiger beetle numbers have shown some positive response.
