The invention discloses a method suitable for controlling pests by releasing parasitic wasps in a
paddy field. A counter-weight is injected into a bearing space of a releasing device, and ova used for breeding the parasitic wasps are put into a host ovum space; then a cover is buckled onto each cup to form a
whole body; the release devices containing the parasitic wasps are uniformly thrown into the
paddy field and float on the water surface automatically, the parasitic wasps
climb out from outgoing holes actively after eclosion of the ova of the parasitic wasps and search pest host ova; when the parasitic wasps are released in the field, operators can throw the release devices with certain weights into the
paddy field on ridges of the paddy field instead of going into the paddy field, under the action of gravity, the bottom of each release device falls into the water first, and under the action of
buoyancy force of the outer edge of each cup, each release device can not sink
underwater, each upper space holding
trichogramma can float on the water surface, even a little amount of water enters from the outgoing holes, and the water flows into a lower space containing sand through a funnel-shaped
clapboard in each release device; the method can be used for preventing a predatism natural enemy from eating the host ova, can prevent rain and water accumulation, and realizing the mechanized production. The release devices are all made from a
corn starch biodegradable material which can be degraded within about six months under natural conditions, and can not pollute the environment.
