    Кавказ ва Марказий Осиё мамлакатларида (КМО) чигирткаларга қарши ку рашиш мақсадида катта миқдордаги инсектицидлардан фойдаланилади. Қоида тариқасида, улар пиретроидлар, неоникотиноидлар ва фосфороар ганик каби кенг миқёсда қўлланиладиган кимёвий инсектицидлар бўлиб, инсон саломатлиги ва атроф-муҳит учун хавф туғдириши мумкин. КМО мам лакатларининг чигирткаларга қарши курашиш бўлинмаларида бу хавф-ха тарларни камайтириш бўйича кўплаб чора-тадбирлар мавжуд. Шунга қа рамай, пестицидларнинг атроф-муҳитга ва инсон саломатлигига таъсири бўйича жамоатчиликнинг қизиқиши кучайиб бораётганлиги, миллий қо нунчиликлар ва халқаро сиёсатнинг янада кенг чегаралари чигирткаларга қарши кураш олиб бориш доимий равишда такомиллаштириб борилишини тақозо қилади.
