Storage Instructions

Tricho-Fruits® trichogramma are delivered on cards that serve as incubators. After 5 to 7 days and under the right conditions, these eggs hatch and become small wasps. Handle the cards by holding them by the edges. Attach the card to the tree or shrub. Place the end of the hook in the small slot at the top right to secure the card in the tree (otherwise the card may blow away with the wind. Keep the cards in place for 3 weeks. Place new cards every 7 days. Unused cards can go in the refrigerator for up to 4 weeks. Refrigerate upon receipt. Do not freeze.
