The efficacy of three entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) of family Steinernematidae was tested in different laboratory conditions in this study. The virulence of Steinernema arenarium, S. carpocapsae and S. feltiae was evaluated to fourth-instar larvae of Galleria mellonella and Tenebrio molitor. Standard temperature (25°C) and humidity (12,5 %) was used in bioassay No I. Trial No II focused on impact of temperature 10, 15 and 25°C on effectivity of S. feltiae and S. carpocapsae. Bioassay No III examined the influence of lower humidity and in consequence rehydration on virulence nematodes.
