241 - Making a case for Bio-controls: differentiating inundative versus classic strategies with the native entomopathogenic nematode, Romanomermis culicivorax
Abstract: Vector suppression and control utilizing whole organism biocontrol agents appear to be a thing of yesteryear. Should we shelf these strategies for good and move on to conventional control methods without looking back? We make the case to say: not so fast! and unpack classic versus inundative strategies using Romanomermis culicivorax and share the production process to incorporate this unique biocontrol agent into integrated control operations.
