Phytoseiulus persimilis is a predatory mite of red spider mite. Once the spider hot spot is found, the female lays its eggs on it. From each egg will emerge a larva that eats 5 adults or 20 eggs per day depending on the stage, until it becomes an adult. P. persimilis eats all the stages of the red spider mite, although it prefers young spiders.
