Pergande (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), broadly known as Western flower thrips (WFT), are currently one of the most critical pests worldwide in field and greenhouse crops, and their management is full of yet unsolved challenges derived from their high reproductive potential, cryptic habit, and ability to disperse. The control of this pest relies widely on chemical control, despite the propensity of the species to develop resistance. However, significant advances have been produced through biological and ethological control. Although there has recently been a remarkable amount of new information regarding the management of this pest worldwide, there is no critical analysis of recent developments and advances in the attractive control tactics for WFT, constituting the present compilation's aim. Hence, this narrative review provides an overview of effective control strategies for managing thrips populations. By understanding the pest's biology, implementing monitoring techniques, accurately identifying the species, and employing appropriate control measures, farmers and researchers can mitigate the WFT impact on agricultural production and promote sustainable pest management practices.
佩尔甘德蓟马（缨翅目：蓟马科），广为人知的西花蓟马（WFT），目前是全球田间和温室作物中最关键的害虫之一，对其进行管理面临诸多尚未解决的挑战，这些挑战源于其高繁殖潜力、隐匿习性和扩散能力。尽管该物种易于产生抗性，但对这种害虫的防治仍广泛依赖化学防治。然而，通过生物防治和行为学防治已取得了重大进展。尽管最近在全球范围内有大量关于这种害虫管理的新信息，但对于西花蓟马有吸引力的防治策略的最新发展和进展却没有批判性分析，这构成了本汇编的目标。因此，这篇叙述性综述概述了管理蓟马种群的有效控制策略。通过了解害虫的生物学特性、实施监测技术、准确识别物种以及采用适当的控制措施，农民和研究人员可以减轻西花蓟马对农业生产的影响，并促进可持续的害虫管理实践。
