FELTIcontrol

DESCRIPTION OF THE PRODUCT

• Bottle of 250 pupae

The adults of Feltiella acarisuga are unable to find single red spider mites. However, they can find the hot spot of red spider mites, and lay their eggs close to these hot spots. The larva which comes from the egg eats the eggs, nymphs or adults of red spider mites. The F. acarisuga larvae can control effectively large populations of red spider mites. The adults are not predators, and they only need water and sugar to survive.

RECOMMENDED DOSE

Release 250 individuals per hot spot weekly for 3-4 weeks.

CROPS

It is used in several horticultural, ornamental and fruit crops. The development of this predator is optimal in the summer, slowed down in the autumn and winter. It can also be used in heated greenhouses.

USE
