    Correct Answer
    I. Minerfluesnyltehveps / Leaf miner parasitic wasp
    Explanation
    The correct answer is the "Minerfluesnyltehveps / Leaf miner parasitic wasp." This is because the leaf miner is a pest that damages plants by feeding on the tissue inside the leaves. The leaf miner parasitic wasp is a natural enemy of the leaf miner and can help control its population. By choosing biological control with the leaf miner parasitic wasp, it is possible to reduce the damage caused by the leaf miner without the use of chemical pesticides.

    Correct Answer(s)
    H. Mellussnyltehveps / Whitefly parasitic wasp
    Q. Verticillium lecanii
    Explanation
    The correct answer for biological control against whiteflies is the whitefly parasitic wasp (Mellussnyltehveps) and Verticillium lecanii. These organisms are natural enemies of whiteflies and can help reduce their population. The whitefly parasitic wasp lays its eggs inside whitefly nymphs, killing them in the process. Verticillium lecanii is a fungus that infects and kills whiteflies. Both of these biological control agents can be used as an alternative to chemical pesticides to manage whitefly infestations in a more environmentally friendly way.

    • Q.

      Verticillium lecanii

    Correct Answer
    J. Nematoder
    Explanation
    Nematodes are a type of microscopic worm that can be used as a biological control against pests like the ear weevil. They infect and kill the larvae of the weevil, reducing their population and preventing damage to crops. Nematodes are effective because they can penetrate the weevil larvae and release bacteria that cause disease, ultimately leading to the death of the pest. This method of biological control is environmentally friendly and does not harm other beneficial insects or plants.

    • Q.

      Verticillium lecanii

    Correct Answer
    P. Uldlussnyltehveps / Mealybug parasitic wasp
    Explanation
    The suggested explanation for choosing the Mealybug parasitic wasp as a biological control against Mealy bugs is that this specific wasp species is known to be a natural predator of Mealy bugs. The wasp lays its eggs inside the Mealy bugs, and the larvae that hatch from these eggs feed on the Mealy bugs, eventually killing them. This method of biological control is effective in reducing Mealy bug populations without the use of harmful chemicals.

    Correct Answer(s)
    K. Orius-rovtæge / Orius predatory bug
    O. Trips-rovmider / Trips predatory mite
    Explanation
    The correct answer suggests choosing biological control methods against Trips, which are pests that can cause damage to plants. The Orius predatory bug and Trips predatory mite are both natural predators of Trips and can help control their population. By using these biological control agents, it is possible to reduce the number of Trips in a more environmentally friendly way compared to using chemical pesticides.

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Bacillus thuringiensis
    E. Hypoaspis-rovmider / Hypoaspis predatory mites
    J. Nematoder
    Explanation
    Bacillus thuringiensis is a type of bacteria that is commonly used as a biological control agent against various pests, including fungus gnat larvae. It produces toxins that are harmful to the larvae, effectively controlling their population. Hypoaspis predatory mites are also effective in controlling fungus gnat larvae as they feed on the larvae and help reduce their numbers. Nematodes, specifically beneficial species like Steinernema feltiae, are another biological control option as they parasitize and kill the larvae. These three options provide different methods of controlling fungus gnat larvae, making them suitable choices for biological control.

    Explanation
    Spidermite predatory mites are a type of biological control that can be used to combat spidermites. These mites are natural predators of spidermites and feed on them, helping to reduce their population. By introducing spidermite predatory mites into an infested area, they can help to control and manage the spidermite population without the need for chemical pesticides. This method of biological control is environmentally friendly and can be an effective solution for managing spidermite infestations in agricultural or horticultural settings.

    Explanation
    The given correct answer suggests that the best biological control option against scalebugs is the scale bug predatory wasp. This predatory wasp is known for its ability to effectively control scalebug populations by preying on them. By releasing these predatory wasps in an infested area, they can help reduce the scalebug population naturally without the need for chemical pesticides.

      Feromonfælde

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Bacillus thuringiensis
    R. Feromonfælde
    Explanation
    Bacillus thuringiensis is a type of bacteria that is commonly used as a biological control against various pests, including the turnip moth. It produces toxins that specifically target and kill the larvae of the turnip moth, while being harmless to other beneficial insects and humans. Therefore, choosing Bacillus thuringiensis as a biological control method can effectively reduce the population of turnip moths and minimize damage to crops. A feromonfælde, or pheromone trap, is another effective method of biological control for monitoring and trapping adult turnip moths, helping to prevent them from reproducing and causing further damage.

    Correct Answer(s)
    I. Trips
    J. Minerfluer / Leaf miners
    Explanation
    Blue sticky traps can be used against trips and leaf miners. These traps are designed to attract and capture flying insects, including trips and leaf miners, by utilizing the color blue, which is known to attract these pests. The sticky surface of the trap prevents the insects from escaping once they land on it. Therefore, using blue sticky traps can help control and monitor the populations of trips and leaf miners in an agricultural or gardening setting.
