The entomopathogenic nematodes, Steinernema carpocapsae Pocheon strain (ScP) and Heterorhabditis bacteriophora Hamyang strain (HbH) were evaluated against chestnut insect pests, The farmers＇handling methods of chestnuts were taken into consideration to develop practical biological control with entomopathogenic nematodes . The major insect pests found with chestnuts were Curculio sikkimensis, Seichocrocis punctiferalis, and Cydia kurokoi. Although individual chestnut contained one species of insect was 58% representing 18% by C. sikkimensis, 27.7% by D. punctiferalis and 12.3% by C. kurokoi. The percentage of co-infection of C. sikkimensis with D. punctiferalis was 3.3%, C. sikkimensis with C. kurokoi 5.0%, D. punctiferalis with C. kurokoi 7.7%, and C. sikkimensis with D. punctiferalis and C. kurokoi 5.0%. The entomopathogenic nematodes, ScP and HbH were effective against all the species of chestnut insect pests. The $LC_{50}$ of ScP was 14.6 for C. sikkimensis, 4.6 for D. punctiferalis, and 5.6 for C. kurokoi and that of HbH was 49.2 for C. sikkimensis, 5.8 for D. punctiferalis, and 13.9 for C. kurokoi, respectively. When ScP was applied into pot including harvested chestnuts at the rate of 4,813 infective juveniles (Ijs)/pot $(=1\times10^9/ha)$, mortality of C. sikkimensis, D. punctiferalis, and C. kurokoi was 85.3%, 96.9%, and 68.1%, respectively. The mortality of C. sikkimensis, D. punctiferalis, and C. kurokoi was 60.73%, 96.5%, and 66.8%, respectively when HbH was applied at the same rate. Combination of two nematode species produced similar effects and insects were more infected by ScP than HbH. When chestnuts were soaked in the suspension of ScP at the rate of 300, 3,000, and 30,000 Ijs for 10 minutes or 30 minutes, mortalities of all chestnut insects were high irrespective of soaking time, concentration , and nematode species.
