Reception of preparation of the entomopathogenic nematodes and the estimation of their efficiency

Results about invasion activity of 3 kinds entomopathogenic nematodes from family Steinernema (S. feltiae, S. carpocapsae, S. glaseri ) concerning 2 pest insects of a cotton (cotton scoops Spodoptera littoralis and a cotton bug - Pectinophora gossypiella) and house fly (M. domestica) is analyzed.
