摘要

In view of the hazardous effects of the pesticides on the crop and the environment, use of bio-control agents to contain the pest menace is increasingly advocated. One such agent could be chrysopids used in isolation or in combination with other parasitoids already in use, may help contain the caterpillar pests of mulberry. The authors propose for detailed investigation before its commercial propagation.
