Wheeler, working on termites and parasites of Simulium. From 1913 to 1921, he was entomology officer for the province of Alberta based in Lethbridge. He served as a lieutenant in the First World War with the 1st Battalion of the Canadian Machine Gun Corps and was wounded in France in 1918.

During the Second World War, he served as a commanding officer of the Army Basic Training Unit at Wetaskiwin and attained the rank of colonel. In 1946, he was joined by Brian Hocking at the entomology department and he retired in 1954. Strickland wrote 60 entomological papers on ecology, life cycles, taxonomy, and pest control. He is best known for his prescient 1945 paper, "Could the widespread use of DDT be a disaster?" He was married to Alice Fairfield from 1924 and they had two daughters. (en)
