Insect control methods are strategies used to manage and reduce insect populations that can harm crops, spread diseases, or cause other problems. Common methods include biological control, which uses natural predators or parasites to keep insect numbers in check, and cultural control, which involves changing farming practices to make the environment less hospitable to pests. Another approach is chemical control, which uses insecticides to kill or repel insects. Integrated Pest Management (IPM) combines these methods for a more sustainable solution, focusing on long-term prevention and minimizing risks to human health and the environment.
