Climate change can have diverse effects on natural enemies of pest species. Here we review these effects and their likely impacts on pest control. The fitness of natural enemies can be altered in response to changes in herbivore quality and size induced by temperature and CO 2 effects on plants. The susceptibility of herbivores to predation and parasitism could be decreased through the production...
Carabid beetles are central to the biological control of arable crop pests, in particular slugs. We evaluate three ways of potentially promoting predator numbers: providing conservation strips adjacent to farmland, reducing the number of deleterious chemical sprays and changing tillage practices. In providing growers with management guidelines we also introduce a simple insecticide metric, based on...
