Economic importance :

Beneficial insects because they feed on other insects .

since they are cannibalistic and also feed on other beneficial insects ,their value as biocontrol agents is probably rather limited.

تعتبر هذه الحشرات مفيدة لانها تتغذى على الحشرات الاخرى. ولهذه الحشرات صفة وحشية حيث انها تاكل بعضها البعض احيانا ويمكن ان تتغذى على الحشرات المفيدة ايضا ولذلك فإن استخدامها فى المكافحة الحيوية يعتبر محدود
