An effective host-finding capacity is, however, one of the main determinants of successful biological control.
However, the amount of research pertaining to biological control of termites using these agents is negligible.
Their correct identification is fundamental for biological control purposes.
Biological control agents have also been applied in the management of cruciferous aphids with some degree of success.
Therefore, it is essential that the effects of these control systems on specific biological control agents are evaluated.
Supplemental food sources are a useful tool for biological control since they allow greater survival, and potentially reproduction of predators when food sources are scarce.
Thus, it had the highest impact on the pest and may yet show promise for a biological control initiative.
Generally, the search for a successful biological control agent should start in the area of origin of the pest.
