Predator and Parasitoid
Insects
Pradotor and parassitoid insects eat other insects and parasites. Ladybugs are a reknown example, but we can find other species that become useful for susteinable agricolture
These are some of them:
-
Antocoride, also known flower bugs feed on many arthropods harmful for plants;
-
Green lacewings, nocturnal insects whose larvae prey on aphids. They are also resistant to cold, providing contrast to infestations during early spring;
-
Earwigs are voracious predators of other insects eggs.
