Summary Introduction
To explain: The ways of controlling detrimental insects.
Introduction: Detrimental insects are commonly referred to as pests. There needs to be proper control of these insects as they lead to the destruction of several economically important materials, thus hampering human life. However, the complete destruction of all insects also adversely affects life on the earth, as there are certain beneficial insects as well that serve important functions.
Summary Introduction
To explain: Integrated pest management(IPM).
Introduction: Pests are the organisms that interfere with crop plants in the fields or cause damage to clothes and other materials.
