Biological Pest Control
Better — and safer — than chemicals, biological pest control is based on highly specific, naturally occurring diseases caused by insect-infecting bacteria, protozoa, viruses and fungi. These natural pesticides are very effective against their target insects but are nontoxic to humans, pets, wildlife and beneficial insects. Biological pesticides are also short-lived in the environment and are less likely to produce pest resistance than chemical pesticides.
