Biological Pest Control

An alternative to chemical control and a method that falls right in-line with IPM is Biological Control.  Natural pest enemies should always be considered when deciding how to control pests.

Predators are organisms that kill and feed on their prey outright.  They are generally larger than their prey and must consume numerous prey in order to complete development.

Parasites are usually smaller and often weaker than their prey.  They lay eggs on or within a host insect and the immature(s) use the host for food over time.

Examples of insect predators and parasites:
