Abstract

Spiders succeeded in control of the pest Spodoptera Littoralis. Where the population densities of the pest decreased to zero in the third week after the release Therefore the reduction percentage recorded 100%., while the averages of the population densities were decreased significantly at level (10) in the rest weeks. However the reduction percentages ranged between (35.88% - 84.16%) at level (5), while ranged (71.89% - 100%) at level (10).
