Biological pest control provides a natural, safe and sustainable
way to control insect pests. Increasingly recognized by
professional and hobby growers alike, it’s fast becoming the best
solution for insect pest control in the garden. A Gardener’s
Guide to Biological Pest Control applies the latest practices from
professional horticulture and botanical gardens to all garden
settings, including greenhouses, vegetable plots, lawns and
borders. It guides the gardener from the very start of the process,
outlining the conditions required for successful application and
which natural enemies to use against which insect pest, to how to
ensure successful, sustainable pest control in the long term. Quote
from Robert Brett - Curator, RHS Garden Hyde Hall: "Having worked
in glasshouses and public gardens for over thirty years, I have
witnessed first-hand the vital importance that natural predators
(biological control) have to play in helping combat the problems we
continually face with plant health. There is no one more equipped
and knowledgeable to help illustrate and guide us in the use of
natural predators in the garden than Julian Ives."
