Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is a naturally occurring bacterium that is often used as a biological pesticide due to its ability to produce toxins harmful to certain insect larvae. To control its populations, you can implement strategies such as rotating crops to disrupt the life cycle of target pests, using microbial insecticides judiciously to prevent resistance, and practicing integrated pest management (IPM) techniques that combine biological, cultural, and mechanical controls. Additionally, maintaining proper environmental conditions can help limit excessive growth of Bt in non-target areas.
