Temperature-driven changes in insect behavior significantly impact pest dynamics, posing challenges for pest management strategies in agriculture. This text explores the influence of temperature on insect behavior and its critical implications for pest management strategies. Insects, as ectothermic organisms are highly sensitive to temperature changes, which affect their physiology, behavior, and population dynamics. With rising global temperatures, pest species are expanding into new regions, increasing their activity periods, and becoming more resistant to traditional control methods.
