In Pest and Vector Control, first published in 2004, Professors van Emden and Service describe the available options for meeting this challenge, discussing their relative advantages, disadvantages and future potential. Methods such as chemical and biological control, host tolerance and resistance are discussed integrating (often for the first time) information and experience from the agricultural and medical/veterinary fields. Chemical control is seen as a major component of insect control, both now and in the future, but this is balanced with an extensive account of associated problems, especially the development of pesticide-tolerant populations.Pest & Vector ControlPestsControlPestsBiological controlVector controlPesticidesEnvironmental aspectsPestsControl.PestsBiological control.Vector control.PesticidesEnvironmental aspects.632/.7Van Emden H.
