Insects such as lacewings and ladybirds are beneficial for crops.
The lacewing has a thin pale green body between two pairs of transparent lace-like wings.
There are lacewings, hoverflies, and dragonflies.
Invite ladybirds, hoverflies and lacewings into your garden to feed on aphids.
Lacewings are natural predators of crop pests and can help the farmer in protecting crops.
Lacewing weights were not affected by plant type.
In contrast, on non-transgenic plants, lacewings had a choice between feeding on aphids, lacewings or moth larvae and pupae.
Two days later 20 first instar lacewing larvae were placed on each plant.
The differences in lacewing recovery rates observed in the present study could be due to either lower lacewing survival or changes in predator behaviour that increased lacewing dispersal.
A preliminary experiment had shown that lacewing recovery rates were very low if no shelters for lacewings to hide and rest during the day were provided.
