Production of pollinator-dependent crops (PDCs) is increasing. However, pollinators are declining partly due to loss of floral resources. There is urgency to mitigate this decline and the potential risks to the production of PDCs and food security. O

Gaseous ozone, an oxidizing agent used as a disinfectant in food processing and preservation, has potential for the control of stored product insects. In this study, we investigated ozone for the management of the rice weevil, Sitophilus oryzae (L.)

Simple Summary Pollinators are a major part of global biodiversity and they provide ecosystem services important for the production of many crops. Their abundance and diversity have declined steadily in recent years. Loss of foraging resources throug

In recent times, research has focused on integrated pest management approaches using nonchemical alternatives such as mating disruption for the control of stored product insect pests. In this study, we examined the effect of imposed delayed mating on

The ban of methyl bromide and problems associated with the use of other stored-product pest control methods have demanded search for potential alternatives. Ozone, an oxidizing gas, is one of such potential alternatives. In this study, the susceptibi

Tyrophagus putrescentiae (Schrank) (Sarcoptiformes: Acaridae) is a serious pest of post-harvest durable stored food products for which traps are being developed as important tools for integrated pest management. This work addresses the effects of tra

Spatial and temporal dynamics of pest populations are an important aspect of effective pest management. However, absolute sampling of some pest populations such as the ham mite, Tyrophagus putrescentiae (Schrank) (Sarcoptiformes: Acaridae), a serious

A greenhouse experiment was conducted to determine the effect of plant spacing and predator–prey ratio on dispersal and foraging efficiency of the predatory mite, Phytoseiulus persimilis, on the twospotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae. When pre
