Summary/Abstract: The study aims to determine the impact of peach aphids and greenhouse whitefly on greenhouse vegetable production. The results show that the damage caused by peach aphids and greenhouse whiteflies is determined by the direct damage they cause when feeding, and by their ability to transmit viral diseases, which further increases their harmfulness. During their development, the larvae secrete honeydew, which leads to the development of ink mushrooms. The enemies are distinguished by specific resistance to various insecticides, which is why using bioinsecticides is highly effective
