Application Instructions
Anystis baccarum is shipped at different developmental stages. Adults are shipped in their final pupal stage so that they can emerge as hungry adults upon arrival. Use immediately upon receipt.
These mites are delicate; they must be given time to emerge and start moving. For this reason, we recommend releasing them in a central location with an optimal temperature of 24 °C and humidity above 70%. Broadcasting the contents over several spots is also an option.
Preventive application rates* generally range from 5 to 10 individuals per m², and 10 to 30 individuals per m² for light to severe infestations. Introductions should be performed 1–2 times per season. Reapply as needed until pest control is achieved.
*Introduction rates may vary depending on specific crop conditions, the type of pest present, and the level of infestation.
Storage Instructions
Use upon receipt.
Do not refrigerate or freeze.
