{"product_id":"ecological-entomology-isbn-9780471244837","title":"Ecological Entomology","description":"Featuring completely updated chapters, additional authors, and an increased emphasis on alternatives to traditional pesticides, the second edition of Ecological Entomology is the field's leading reference on the role of insects in ecosystems. The authors cover insect growth and development, what they eat, how they reproduce, and how they move in various environments. The book also examines how insects interact with the plant community and how to control insect populations naturally. Introduction to Ecological Entromology (C.
