Abstract:Biological control, which uses natural enemies to reduce pest populations, is a non-polluting powerful method to manage impacts of (invasive) pests. Currently, polyphagous mirid predators are increasingly used in commercial, augmentative biological control. Information about their foraging behaviour is essential, especially if one intends to use several natural enemies for control of one or more pests in a crop, to detect if negative intraguild effects occur. We studied a case of intraguild predation (IGP) inv… Show more
