Abstract
Pests, distributed on the Republic of Moldova territory, annually,
depending on climatic conditions, can cause significant damage to agricultural crops,
amounting to about 25-30% of the expected yield. The purpose of our research was to
evaluate the effectiveness of nesting devices, located in various biotopes, for wintering
and attracting entomophages. The most significant potential biological plant protection
agents, belong to the orders Neuroptera, Coleoptera, Hymenoptera (parasites and
predators). The percentage of lacewing species was determined - the species Chrysopa
carnea (86,4%) was dominant. The main factors, influencing the number of
entomophages, attracted to wintering with the help of nesting devices, were established
types of filler materials and location height.
