Prevention and Control
Biological Control
In Senegal, a study showed that biological control using the caterpillar of Hippotion celerio could be an achievable method to control C. quadrangularis. This study also suggested that the combination of physical (manual removal) and biological control is the best approach to control the spread of this species in the study area (Nzengue et al., 2015).
