Push-pull strategies involve the behavioral manipulation of insect pests and their natural enemies via the integration of stimuli that act to make the protected resource unattractive or unsuitable to the pests (push) while luring them toward an attractive source (pull) from where the pests are subsequently removed. The push and pull components are generally nontoxic. Therefore, the strategies are usually integrated with methods for population reduction, preferably biological control. Push-pull strategies maximize efficacy of behavior-manipulating stimuli through the additive and synergistic effects of integrating their use. By orchestrating a predictable distribution of pests, efficiency of population-reducing components can also be increased. The strategy is a useful tool for integrated pest management programs reducing pesticide input. We describe the principles of the strategy, list the potential components, and present case studies reviewing work on the development and use of push-pull strategies in each of the major areas of pest control.

在虫害综合治理中采用推挽策略。

推挽策略涉及通过整合刺激来对害虫及其天敌进行行为控制，从而使受保护资源对害虫（推力）没有吸引力或不合适，同时又将诱饵引向诱虫源（引诱）随后被删除。推拉部件通常无毒。因此，这些策略通常与减少种群的方法（最好是生物防治）结合在一起。推挽策略通过整合使用的相加作用和协同作用来最大化行为操纵刺激的功效。通过协调有害生物的可预测分布，还可以提高减少种群数量的效率。该战略是综合有害生物管理计划减少农药投入的有用工具。
