Establishment and evaluation of a biological control of woolly apple aphid (Eriosoma lanigerum Hausm.) in apple (Malus × domestica Borkh.) through the introduction of earwigs (Forficula auricularia L.) (Project)

Woolly apple aphids are major pests in apple cultivation. They cause cracks and galls on shoots and roots, weaken tree growth, and promote diseases. Climate change exacerbates these problems by increasing drought stress. At the same time, chemical pesticides are becoming increasingly restricted, making environmentally friendly alternatives urgently needed. A promising method for controlling...
