Bugs for Bugs For all enquires please contact us through our website: https://bugsforbugs.com.au/contact/ Beneficial insect production is very challenging.
(1)

Maintaining continuous insect production of each beneficial species requires constant monitoring of the rearing systems and attention to detail. Bugs for Bugs uses around 250 tonnes of butternut squash and 24 tonnes of wheat per year for its beneficial insect production. There are four main rearing systems:

* beneficial insects for scale insects
* beneficial insects for mealybugs
* moth pa

rasites and lacewings
* fly parasites for control of nuisance flies

Our company also provides a crop monitoring service to assist growers in achieving good Integrated Pest Management. We have provided IPM consulting sevices in countries such as Thailand, Jordan and Morocco. Bugs for Bugs has also carried out contract research to evaluate IPM compatible materials including their effect on biological control agents.

Queensland fruit fly is a high priority pest and it is extremely important to minimise their activity using a systems approach.

What are the essentials of a systems approach?
1. Protein baits - Attract and kill female flies
2. Male annihilation technique (MAT) – Attract and kill male flies
3. Monitoring – Inspect crops regularly and use male traps
4. Sanitation - Remove residual over ripe fruit after harvest

Please refer to our website link below for more information regarding fruitfly management strategies.
