Abstract

Entomopathogenic nematodes are one the important biological control agent against many pestiferous insects. However, during field application of entomopathogenic nematodes the population of other beneficial insects may have some impact. Though under laboratory condition with high doses of infective juvenile of entomopathogenic nematodes shows wide range of susceptibility to non target invertebrates, but under field conditions the impact on non-target invertebrates has either been small and or undetectable .This review gives an idea about the susceptibility and their impact of entomopathogenic nematodes on non-target invertebrates and precautions to be taken during application.
