A superfamily of parasitic and predatory wasps that includes many economically important insects used for biological pest control.
From Chalcididae with the Latin superfamily suffix '-oidea.' This taxonomic classification groups related wasp families together, derived ultimately from Greek 'chalkos' (copper).
Chalcidoidea wasps are the pest control industry's secret weapon—farmers release millions of them each year to fight crop-destroying insects without using pesticides. Some species can inject eggs into hosts invisible to the human eye.
