Pests A pest is any insect, mite, rodent, nematode, fungus, weed or other plant or animal that is injurious to the health of humans, animals, plants or the environment. Pests can cause damage to plants by making them less productive, affecting reproduction, or destroying them.

5 major categories of pests Insects Nematodes Weeds Diseases Rodents

Insects Animals with three distinct body parts: head, abdomen, and thorax Three pairs of legs, and one, two or no pairs of wings.                    

Nematodes Appendage less, non-segmented, worm like invertebrates that have a body cavity and complete digestive tract. They feed by penetrating root cells leaving lesions in which bacteria and fungi can enter the plant roots.

Weeds Any plants growing out of place or an unwanted plant.             

Diseases Abnormal conditions of plants that interfere with their normal appearance, growth structure, or function.

Rodents or other animals Animals that eat leaves, stems, fruit, and roots of plants.

What conditions do pests require for growth? Three factors that must be present before an infectious disease can infect a plant: The presence of a pest A susceptible plant A favorable environment

The Pest If a pest is not present where plants are grown, it cannot cause a problem. Crop rotation provides a means of eliminating the host for pests that may be present if the same crops are grown in the same location year after year.

A susceptible plant Some plants may have a natural immunity or susceptibility to certain diseases. Growers can select which crops to grow based upon which pests are found in their area. Biotechnology has allowed the production of plants that have been genetically altered to produce natural toxins that prevent attack from such pests.

A favorable environment The environment often can be altered to be more favorable for the growth of the host plant and less favorable for the pest. Pesticides can also be used to make the environment deadly for the pest.

How pests affect plants Pests can injure plants in many different ways. These damages can result in losses for the producer which will eventually be passed on to the consumers.

Damage caused by pests Damage caused by pests may be observed by outward symptoms consisting of: Holes in the leaves Damage the vascular system Attacks to the fruit Contamination of the plant Loss of nutrients Damage to land Death of the plant

Integrated Pest Management Integrated Pest Management (IPM) refers to a broad variety of methods used to control pest species in fields, gardens, greenhouses, and human lives in general. These methods include mechanical, cultural, chemical, biological and genetic control.

Two goals of IPM 1. Keep pest levels below the economic injury level. 2. Avoid adverse effects to humans and the environment.

A successful IPM program The key to successful IPM is the use of a scout, who regularly monitors pest populations and crop conditions. Scouts look for indicators such as the economic injury level and economic threshold to determine what, if any, steps should be taken to prevent crop losses.

Controlling plant pests Integrated Pest Management uses a variety of methods to control pests in many different conditions while taking into consideration the effects of each on the environment.

Methods in controlling pests Mechanical control Cultural control Chemical control Biological control Genetic control

Mechanical control Pests are destroyed or removed from the plant or area using tools or equipment. Examples of mechanical control are: Plowing Mowing Mulching

Cultural control Implementing cropping practices that are not conducive to pest survival. Examples of cultural control include: Crop rotation Trap cropping Burning Planting resistant varieties Destroying habitats in and around fields

Chemical Control Involves the use of pesticides to kill harmful levels of pest populations. Several types of pesticides have been developed to specifically deal with certain pests. Examples include: insecticides, nematocides, fungicides, bactericides, herbicides

Chemical control - insecticides Insecticides are chemicals that are developed to control insects. Insecticides usually affect the central nervous system of insects. Therefore, insecticides tend to be very dangerous to humans and animals.

Chemical control - nematocides Chemicals used to control nematodes are called nematocides. Nematodes live in the soil making it difficult to treat problems caused by nematodes.

Fungicides / Bactericides Fungicides and Bactericides are used to control plant diseases. Fungicides are used to control diseases caused by fungi Bactericides control diseases caused by bacteria.

Chemical control - herbicides Herbicides are chemicals used to control herbs or weeds. Selective herbicides will kill only certain types of plants. While non-selective herbicides kill all plants on contact.

Biological Control An example is the use of lady bugs to control aphid poUses living organisms to control pests by taking advantage of natural predator-prey relationships, bacteria and fungi, or altering the reproductive cycle of the pest. populations.

Genetic control Many of today’s plants have been genetically altered to contain natural toxins to some pests. Furthermore, several crop varieties have been selected for their resistance to bacterial or fungal diseases. An example is the development and use of Bt corn.
