For reducing dependency on chemical pesticides, replacement of chemical control by biological control even partially as in many IPM programs has important positive situation, but so far neglected socio economic, humanitarian, environmental, and ethical implications. Change from chemical to biological control substantially contributes to the conservation of natural resources and results in a considerable reduction of environmental pollution. It eliminates human exposure to toxic pesticides, improves sustainability of production systems, and enhances biodiversity. Public demand for finding solutions based on biological control is the main driving force in the increasing utilization of natural enemies for controlling noxious organisms
