Description

With integrated management employed during the ideal weather conditions for up to 3 weeks – this predator has proven its value time again against garden pests.

Application Instructions

Neoseiulus cucumeris can be introduced in two main ways: bulk or sachets.

Bulk

Before introduction, very gently rotate the tube to homogenize the content inside and spread the mites all over the tube.

Sprinkle onto plants and foliage. The mites are mobile and can be seen with a 10-15 X magnifying glass.

Sachets

Protect from direct sunlight and overhead watering.
Sachets on hooks : Hung at the center of the plants.
Sachets on sticks : Place near the base of the plants.

Change sachets every 4-6 weeks or until control.

Preventive application rates* generally range from 25-50 individuals per m² (slow-release sachets is advised), 50-500 individuals per m² for curative treatment (bulk release is advised). Repeat until control.

*Introduction rates may vary depending on specific crop conditions, the type of pest present, and the level of infestation.

Storage Instructions

Use upon receipt to ensure maximum efficacy.

Do not refrigerate or freeze.

To ensure freshness, make sure that air circulates properly in the space where they
