Biological Control – U.S. • 1st step before developing
a biological control strategy: – Determine baseline data on
native natural enemy activity
• Implement biological control approach – Conservation – Augmentation – Classical

Main Objective • Survey and identify native natural enemy
activity in ornamental systems
– BMSB egg mortality
– Parasitoid complex and parasitism rates
– Predator complex

Egg Mortality and Parasitoids: Methods • Sampled three nurseries at regular intervals from late
May through September 2012 and 2013

Egg Mortality and Parasitoids: Methods • Visual searches of foliage on Acer,
Prunus, and Ulmus for: - BMSB egg masses (natural) - Natural enemy activity
• Egg masses flagged and left in field
for set time interval - Brought back to lab and
monitored for mortality factors and parasitoid emergence
- Growth chamber (25⁰C, 16L : 8D)

- 31.8% in 2012 - 43.8% in 2013
• Anastatus reduvii was the most abundant

Conclusions: • Field surveys suggested that predators may be
tracking BMSB • Most abundant predators observed:
- Wheel bugs - Spiders
• Wheel bugs were most voracious predator
- Consumed both adult and nymphal BMSB stages
• Low predation of eggs

Effects of entomopathogenic fungi on brown marmorated stink bug
P. Shrewsbury, R. St. Leger, T. Pike, UMD
• Evaluated 3 genera (Metarhizium, Beauvaria, and Isaria) and multiple strains of wild type fungi and measured days to kill and days to sporulation
• None appear to be consistently virulent to the level necessary to serve as a biological agent either as a formulated biological control or in an Attract and Kill method
• More recently pursuing transgenic fungal strains in an attempt to increase efficacy and bioassays being analysed

Progress Toward IPM Programs and Biological Control
• Native natural enemies are attacking BMSB • Egg parasitoids – ornamental systems • Predators – field / vegetable crops; apples • Low parasitoid activity in orchards (PA)
• Baseline data for future biological control programs • Classical biological control • Conservation of natural enemies
– Habitat manipulation to provide resources (ex. Insectary plantings) – Smart selection / use of pesticides
• Long term, sustainable approach
