Its portfolio includes predatory mites, parasitic wasps, and other beneficial organisms used in integrated pest management (IPM), as well as plant tonics and organic fertilizers that support soil and plant vitality. biohelp emphasizes compatibility with natural ecosystems, reducing reliance on synthetic chemical pesticides. The advisory component is central to its business model: the company provides technical guidance on the correct application of biological agents, monitoring of pest populations, and development of customized protection strategies. biohelp serves markets primarily in Austria and neighboring German-speaking countries, with a focus on professional users rather than home gardeners. Its website, biohelp-profi.at, functions as a technical resource and product catalog for its target audience. The company remains a privately held GmbH, reflecting its origins as a specialized, service-oriented enterprise. While exact financial figures and ownership details are not publicly disclosed, biohelp is recognized within the European biologicals sector for its practical expertise and long-standing presence in the field. In recent years, biohelp has continued to expand its product range in response to growing demand for sustainable farming practices and regulatory pressure to reduce chemical pesticide use. The company participates in industry networks and maintains partnerships with research institutions and suppliers of biological control agents. Its work supports the broader transition toward organic and integrated farming across Central Europe.

biohelp was founded in Austria in the 1990s as a specialized enterprise focused on biological plant protection. The company emerged during a period of growing interest in integrated pest management and organic farming across Europe, driven by environmental awareness and regulatory shifts away from broad-spectrum chemical pesticides. Its full legal name—biologischer Pflanzenschutz-Nützlingsproduktions-, Handels- und Beratungs-GmbH—reflects its three core activities: production of beneficial insects, trade in biological products, and advisory services. From its early years, biohelp targeted professional users in horticulture, fruit growing, viticulture, and agriculture. The company built expertise in rearing and supplying natural enemies of common pests, such as predatory mites for spider mite control and parasitic wasps for whitefly and aphid management. This was complemented by a range of plant strengtheners and organic fertilizers designed to maintain crop health without synthetic inputs. The launch of the biohelp Profi-Line marked a strategic focus on commercial producers, including market gardeners, orchardists, arable farmers, winemakers, and managers of sports fields and golf courses. This division provides not only products but also technical advice on application timing, dosage, and integration with other crop protection measures. The advisory component has been central to biohelp's value proposition, helping customers implement effective biological strategies. Over the decades, biohelp has expanded its product catalog and deepened its expertise in biological control. It has adapted to evolving EU regulations on pesticide use, which have increasingly favored biological alternatives. The company maintains relationships with research institutions and international suppliers of beneficial organisms, ensuring access to a broad range of species and formulations. While biohelp remains a privately held GmbH with no public listing, it has established a reputation as a reliable partner for sustainable agriculture in Austria and neighboring German-speaking markets. Its website serves as a key information hub, offering detailed product information and application guidance. The company continues to operate actively, contributing to the reduction of chemical pesticide reliance in European agriculture.
