Checking for signs of establishment of
agents in the field.

Follow-up visits to release sites are always required if establishment is to be verified. Monitoring of the agent population can give information on predation/parasitism, the number of field generations and the number of seasons survived. The agent's life history gained from biological studies may influence the regularity of visits.
