Recent advances in conservation biological control of arthropods by arthropods (2008, background): “Floral resources provided to improve fitness of certain natural enemies may also affect the pest (Baggen et al., 1999; Lavandero et al., 2006) or antagonists of biological control agents (Araj et al.”
Impact of wildflower strips on biological control of cabbage lepidopterans. (2009, unknown): “A more effective conservation biological control may be achieved by the provision of selective floral resources (Lavandero et al., 2006) and the creation of permanent non-crop habitats as e.”
Wildflower plantings enhance the abundance of natural enemies and their services in adjacent blueberry fields (2015, background): “Wildflower plantings established to help conserve natural enemy populations may provide resources and habitat for insect (Lavandero et al., 2006; Wäckers et al., 2007) and vertebrate herbivores (Briner, 2005).”
Habitat manipulation to mitigate the impacts of invasive arthropod pests (2010, background): “One way to decrease the risk for this type of unwanted side effects is to search for food plants that selectively benefit natural enemies of the pest but not the pest itself or key antagonists (Baggen et al. 1999; Begum et al. 2006; Lavandero et al. 2006; Araj et al. 2008).”
Larger wildflower plantings increase natural enemy density, diversity, and biological control of sentinel prey, without increasing herbivore density (2012, background): “…Brett R. Blaauw, Department of Entomology, 202 Center for Integrated Plant Systems, 578 Wilson Road, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI 48824, U.S.A.

Biological Control of Insect Pests in Agroecosystems: Effects of Crop Management, Farming Systems, and Seminatural Habitats at the Landscape Scale: A Review (2010, background): “Indeed, Lavandero et al.
