Abstract
Biological control of California red scale– Aonidiella aurantii (Mask.)–by natural enemies, especially parasites, may be achieved in some citrus-producing areas of southern California. However, in many instances other citrus pests present in the same areas may be of sufficient magnitude to necessitate regular or periodic insecticidal treatment.
