With a view to finding alternative solutions to plant protection products, my thesis looks at the effectiveness of releasing natural enemies to control apple aphids in orchards equipped with Alt Carpo netting. This subject is approached on several scales, ranging from the study of the behaviour of natural enemies in laboratories to releases under real conditions in growers' orchards.

"Feasibility and efficacy of releasing natural enemies to control apple aphids in orchards equipped with Alt'Carpo nets with a view to innovating an alternative control strategy".
