The pest has the potential to become a regional pest and in order to prevent a catastrophe similar to that caused by the advent of the HMB (Hibiscus Mealy Bug); it was necessary that strategies be developed to reduce its economic impact and so manage the pest infestation problem emerging in these countries. In pursuit of this objetive, IICA in collaboration with USDA/APHIS/PPQ and CARDI drew up a cooperative programme designed to implement a biological control programme against the pest, in the Caribbean
