What is biological weed control?
Historically, you sent someone out into your garden or field with a hoe, and they chopped weeds or pulled them out by the roots. Chemical weeding involves spraying herbicides that target the most common weeds--not including the crop. Today, you might release an insect that feeds on the weeds but leaves the crop alone. These biological methods are not in common use yet. The biological method to get rid of tomato worms (horn worms), for example, is to pluck them off and stomp on them. Of course, that is pest control, not weeding.
