- Abstract
The Brown marmorated stink bug (Halyomorpha halys Stål, 1855) is an invasive, polyphagous species of Bed bug that has spread from its original Asian area to North and South America and Europe. The aim of this paper is to present previous research on potential natural enemies of H. halys that could be used to reduce the population. H. halys has a large number of natural enemies: insects, fungi, nematodes, microsporidia, bacteria, viruses and others. Natural enemies are researched and used to control different developmental stages of H. halys. The highest efficiency was found with parasitic wasps: Trissolcus spp. and Anastatus spp., and entomopathogenic fungi (Beauveria bassiana (Bals.- Criv.) Vuill. (1912) and others). Extensive research is needed before releasing new organisms into the wild, but previous studies have shown the high efficiency of certain species, and their use can certainly be recommended as one of the effective biological measures to control H. halys.
