Download or read book Biological Control of Insects Pests written by Bret White and published by Scientific e-Resources. This book was released on 2019-11-07 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book "e;Biological Control of Insects Pests"e; illustrates how to control biologically the insect's pests. It is important to know when numbers are great enough to justify artificial control and to evaluate the effectiveness of control. The text has been organized very systematically to meet the long-felt needs of increasingly large number of readers. Biological control is the use of living organisms to maintain pest populations below damaging levels. Natural enemies of arthropods fall into three major categories: predators, parasitoids, and pathogens. Predators catch and eat their prey. Some common predatory arthropods include ladybird beetles, carabid (ground) beetles, staphylinid (rove) beetles, syrphid (hover) files, lacewings, minute pirate bugs, nabid bugs, big-eyed bugs, and spiders. Biological control is the beneficial action of parasites, pathogens and predators in managing pests and their damage. Biocontrol provided by these living organisms, collectively known as natural enemies. It is especially important for reducing the number of pest insects and mites. Biological control is the beneficial action of parasites, pathogens, and predators in managing pests and their damage. Biocontrol provided by these living organisms, collectively called "e;natural enemies,"e; is especially important for reducing the numbers of pest insects and mites. Use of natural enemies for biological control of rangeland and wildland weeds is also effective. Plant pathogens, nematodes, and vertebrates also have many natural enemies, but this biological control is often harder to recognize, less well understood, and/or more difficult to manage. Conservation, augmentation, and classical biological control are tactics for harnessing natural enemies' benefits. The book will be highly useful for general entomologists, students of agricultural entomology, teachers and research scholars of zoology, especially entomology.

This book was released on 2016-07-26 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Insect pest management is a constant in our lives, whether we are protecting our gardens, our agricultural crops, or our family and pets. A typical first reaction is to use pesticides, but another tool - biological control - has been in use for over 100 years, and can be just as effective, if not more so. Biological control typically has been characterized as the anti-pesticide; but it is so much more than that. Biological control has played an integral part in the development of our modern day agricultural production and is a major factor in the integrated approach to pest management that allows us to successfully grow plants of all kinds. Biological control also is much more than simply tossing a few praying mantis or ladybugs at a perceived pest problem and walking away feeling good. Biological control is a process that takes commitment and understanding. Thus, The Biological Control Companion - an easy-to-understand guide to the complexities of pest biology and management. The key for any practitioner of biological control is to have a deep appreciation for and keen awareness of natural control and the rules of predator / prey engagement, because it is these rules that you will be manipulating in the arena of man-made ecosystems to restore and maintain balance among its interconnected constituents. Seems daunting, but this book, with full-color illustrations will help bring concepts and creepy crawlies to life, and place into your hands the tools you need to understand how biological control works, why its role in managing pests is crucial to the future success of global agriculture, and how it can benefit your own home and garden.

Book excerpt: As people become more interested in where their food comes from and how it is grown, the desire for organic produce has steadily increased. But the higher prices of organic vegetables put them out of reach for many families. This is why so many families are breaking ground and committing to growing their own organic food at home. As with any garden, common garden pests must be kept under control so they don't decimate the crops. In order to maintain the organic integrity of the garden, pest control needs to be done naturally rather than with some toxic synthetic chemical concoction from the home improvement store. This means going back to basics and using natural methods for pest management. #1 Best Selling author Gaia Rodale's “Naturally Bug Free: Homemade Pest Control for Organic Gardening Made Easy” contains the information you need to take preventative measures to keep pests from attacking your plants, identify and attract the insects you want, and rid plants of pests when necessary. You will learn: • Why natural pest management is important for organic gardens, and how you can do it very inexpensively • Steps to take to prevent pest infestation, and how to set up an “early alert” system so you know they bad guys are there BEFORE the crops are decimated • Which bugs you are likely to see in your garden, and which ones you WANT in the garden • Where to go to get help identifying a garden bug, you don't want to chase out the good guys • Which bugs are beneficial for pest control, and how you can attract them • How to make your own pesticide simply and inexpensively • Non-toxic ways of dealing with common garden pests This guide provides the information you need to prevent and manage common garden pests without commercial pesticides or insecticides. From explaining why natural pest control is important to providing an over view of how beneficial insects can help with pest management, everything you need for pest prevention, management, and control is between these pages.
