Abstract: Various insect pests can damage crops to different extents, reducing both their quality and quantity. Cotton and sugarcane are particularly vulnerable to sucking complex pests and borer complex pests, which cause damage in different ways. Complex pest sucking sap from delicate plant components, while borer complex pests bore into the crop. These pests have the potential to cause significant damage to the agricultural sector, leading to a considerable loss in yield and quality. The haphazard use of insecticides and pesticides to manage these pests has become a global problem, resulting in harmful effects on human health, plant systems, and the environment. To regulate pest populations, different integrated pest management techniques are followed, including physical, mechanical, cultural, and biological methods. These strategies, which are both sustainable and environmentally sound, attempt to keep pest populations below the economic threshold level. This paper gives an introduction to the invasive pest, biology, lifecycle, and integrated management of cotton and sugarcane pests.
