These products treat symptoms rather than the true problems and injure more beneficial life than the targeted pests. (dirtdoctor.com)
As with insects, spraying for diseases is only treating symptoms, not the major problems - plus the toxic sprays kill more beneficials than the targeted pests. (dirtdoctor.com)

Organisms1
iv) After fulfilling these three criteria, the product must be biosafe: not produce mammalian toxins that affect users and consumers, and have a host range that does not include crops and beneficial organisms, and in most cases that it will not spread from application sites or have environmental residues beyond those needed to control the target pest. (weizmann.ac.il)
Populations2
To better understand the contribution of pesticides to long-term trends in insect populations, especially in heavily converted landscapes, we must identify the diversity of compounds, quantify their concentrations, and test how these affect insect survival and performance. (frontiersin.org)
Due to the sensitive nature of entomophilous (insect-based) pollination, disruptions to the temporal and spatial factors that impact populations of pollinating insects and the plants they feed upon could prove to be detrimental to terrestrial landscapes. (biomedcentral.com)

Understanding the purpose of leaf-cutting and the techniques used by these ants may provide insights into their ecological role and aid in developing strategies for controlling them. (pestkeen.com)
Pest management2
To solve the side effects of insecticides, it should be replaced by environmentally friendly pest management alternatives and for this, the use of plant-based pesticides is the best alternative because they do not have residue problems, negative effects on beneficial insects and do not cause air and water quality problems in the environment. (academicjournals.org)

Insects have been released for the biological control of alligator weed. (findmeacure.com)
1959) first used the term integrated control to describe thepotential for integration of chemical and biological control tactics. (vdocuments.net)
In contrast, entomologists and weed scientists were more insulated from thatnecessity due to the availability of relatively inexpensive pesticides to correct a problem.Several events stimulated the necessity for developing IPM programs in entomology,including those that emphasized development of non-chemical methods of insect control(e.g., cultural, biological, and physical control described herein). (vdocuments.net)
There are different factors that regulate EPN effectiveness in biocontrol (e.g., the habits of the target insect) and environmental factors (e.g., temperature, humidity and soil texture, and pesticide use). (allenpress.com)
