		A good beetle bank is a more effective habitat for predatory insects than a degraded hedgerow, so it is important for hedgerow survival that they are managed to improve their value for this biological control.
		Beetle banks can be constructed as part of normal autumn cultivation operations, and sown in autumn or spring with tussocky grasses such as cock's foot, Yorkshire fog and Timothy at a rate of 3g per square metre.
		As a rough guide, one mid-field bank should be sufficient in a field of 40 acres (16 hectares) which has existing good quality boundaries, or if the boundaries are poor, construct two banks which divide the field into three equal sections.

	Service Proposes Protection of the Salt Creek Tiger Beetle (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The Salt Creek tiger beetle is confined to eastern Nebraska saline wetlands and associated streams and tributaries of Salt Creek in the northern third of Lancaster County.
		One of 32 species and subspecies of tiger beetles in Nebraska, the Salt Creek tiger beetle is an active, ground‑dwelling, predatory insect that captures smaller or similar-sized arthropods in a “tiger‑like” manner by grasping its prey with its mandibles (mouthparts).
		Salt Creek tiger beetle larvae live in permanent burrows in the ground and are voracious predators, fastening themselves by means of abdominal hooks near the tops of their burrows and rapidly extending from them to seize passing invertebrate prey.

	Beetle bank
		In agriculture, a beetle bank is a strip of grass in a field that fosters breeding of insects hostile to pests.
		They are used as a form of natural pest control to reduce or replace the use of insecticides.
		Beetle banks can be squares of grass left or ridges of cultivated land devoted to grasses and perennials that foster the breeding of predatory insects and spiders.

	Vegan Organic Network:: Information Sheet No. 7 - Vegan Organic Grower's Guide to Beetles
		Beetle banks provide many predatory insects and spiders with somewhere to spend the winter and in the spring they can move out into the crop and feed on any pests.
		Such beetle banks can contain up to 1500 predators/square metre and in addition they may be used by grey partridges and skylarks for nesting and are the perfect habitat for field mice.
		Beetles are also useful because they help to break down larger organic matter, aerate the soil and some even act as pollinators in much the same way as bees.

	Create Beetle Banks - The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds
		Beetle banks are grass mounds, about 2 metres wide, that run the length of large arable fields, cutting right across the middle.
		Beetle banks are generally appropriate for fields larger than 20 hectares.
		Beetle banks are particularly vulnerable to the effects of pesticide drift because these narrow strips of grass are sprayed on either side.

	Beetle bank - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In agriculture, a beetle bank is a strip of grass or perennials in a field that provide habitat which fosters and provides cover for insects hostile to pests.
		Beetle banks can also serve as habitat for birds and rodents.
		‘Beetle banks’, a recent initiative by the Game Conservancy Trust, would also help encourage ground-nesting birds while creating cover for aphid-eating bugs with more pay-off in savings on aphicides.

		They tend to remain fairly hidden in hedges, banks and thick undergrowth as they are vulnerable to attack from predators such as weasels and kestrels.They eat a wide variety of plant material including nuts, seeds, berries, roots and bulbs.

		The width of the beetle bank should be 2 to 3 m wide and about 0.4 m high ideally.
		The beetle bank may connect to existing field edges or have gaps up to 25 m wide at either end to allow machinery access.
		The effect of introducing a beetle banks across a field, may be to change the machinery working patterns within the field.

	Final rule, 3 Comal Springs Invertebrates, WAIS Document Retrieval, U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The Comal Springs riffle beetle lacks the ability to fly that many other riffle beetles have, suggesting that it is adapted to continuous and reliable spring flows (although flow may still be variable).
		Fern Bank Springs is in a relatively remote, rural location and its principal vulnerability is probably to contaminants associated with leaking septic tanks, animal/ feedlot wastes, and agricultural chemicals.
		Of the counties containing portions of the San Antonio segment of the Edwards Aquifer, the potential for acute, catastrophic contamination of the aquifer is greatest in Bexar, Hays, and Comal counties because of the greater level of urbanization compared to the western counties.

		Specifically, Peterson tendered the Beetle for repair due to defects in its engine as evidenced by intermittent illumination of the check engine light, intermittent illumination of the check oil light, the vehicle not running, and problems with the keyless entry system and windows.
		Here, Peterson alleged in her complaint that she leased and took possession of the Beetle during the time in which a written two-year or twenty-four-thousand mile "bumper to bumper" warranty issued by Volkswagen was in effect.
		We agree with Peterson that a plain reading of the Act reveals that this is sufficient to establish that the automobile was transferred to her during the effective period of the warranty.

		A tussocky grass strip through the middle of a field, such as a beetle bank, provides essential over-wintering habitat for many welcome insects and spiders, which will move into the crop in the spring and feed on crop pests.

	The Game Conservancy Trust Conservation policy on farmland: restoring biodiversity to farmland (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Beetle banks provide winter habitat for ground beetles - key aphid predators.
		These beetles over-winter in grassy banks and, by creating such a bank across the centre of a field, beetle numbers can be boosted and aphid outbreaks prevented.
		Often it is simply left fallow, but if this acreage is split up and distributed around the farm in 20 metre wide strips and then planted with seed crops like kale or quinoa, or flowering annuals like Phacelia, birds and nectar-feeding insects are encouraged.
