Taiwan is located at tropical and subtropical areas and it is always hot and humidity so that it is very suitable for varied pests to develop and spread out. Growers used to depend on the agricultural chemicals to produce food and make the profits. With the extension of the concept of integrated pest management (IPM), more growers started their farming with environmental friendly methods in order to produce safe and healthful food and let the environment develop sustainable. Physical control is one of the oldest methods in pest control strategies. However, it is kind of friendly to our earth and improved with time. Using the physical control methods effectively could replace a part, or even all of the agricultural chemicals. That will be helpful to develop sustainable agriculture. In this article, some physical control methods that have been applied against pests at Taiwan and abroad will be introduced and those include thermal control, electromagnetic control, mechanical control, pneumatical control and visual lures(color and light) control.
