Role of supplemental foods and habitat structural complexity in persistence and coexistence of generalist predatory mites [PDF]
Plant traits can influence the interactions between herbivore arthropods and their natural enemies. In these interactions generalist predators are often present, preying on herbivores and also on other arthropods in the same trophic guild.

ABSTRACT Many species of Mesostigmata soil mites have potential as biological control agents of pests/parasites. This study evaluated the predation potential of two of these species, Gamasellodes lavafesii (Ascidae) and Cosmolaelaps mediocuspis (Laelapidae).

Developments in the use of predatory mites for biological pest control
Predatory mites (Acari: Phytoseiidae, but now also Laelapidae) have gained momentum as agents for successful biocontrol of plant pests. The time has gone where they were mainly considered for the control of spider mites.
