APHID preditors<br />

Aphidius Ervi<br />

Type: Biological control agent contains the Braconid<br />

wasp, Aphidius ervi. It stings and parasitizes larger<br />

aphids, such as the foxglove aphid, Aulacorthum<br />

solani, and the potato aphid, Macrosiphum<br />

euphorbiae, as well as several other aphid species.<br />

How it works: Provides preventive control of large<br />

aphids,Ventilation and food source available in<br />

packaging to help ensure adult survival.Packaging<br />

allows growers to see the product clearly and judge<br />

its quality and purity.<br />

Species Controlled: Aphids<br />

£35.88<br />

When To Use: The female predatory wasp lays an<br />

egg in the aphid. The egg hatches within 2-3 days<br />

and the larva feeds on the aphid leaving a<br />

parasitised mummy on the plant,The Aphidius Ervi<br />

life cycle takes approximately 14 days at 25°C / 77°F<br />

or 19 days at 21°C / 70°F.<br />

Anthocoris Nemoralis<br />

Type: Predators of insects, mites and aphids,Adults<br />

feed only on nectar and pollen, and are not<br />

predatory.<br />

How it works: Ideal for hot spot treatments due to its<br />

quick knock down effect on aphids. Larvae need<br />

food to survive and complete their larval stages so<br />

Chrysoline is not suitable for preventive use.<br />

Species Controlled: Aphids, Mealy Bugs<br />

ANTHOCORIS NEMORALIS<br />

PEAR PSYLLID PREDATORS 500ML PLASTIC BOTTLE-500<br />
