Ant preditors<br />
Steinernema Feltiae<br />
Type: Entomopathenogenic Nemotode<br />
How it works: A special formulation for spraying. The<br />
nematodes swim through a film of water and enter<br />
the mine to attack and kill the larva within.<br />
Species controlled: More than 230 insect pests are<br />
susceptible, including; black vine weevils, cabbage<br />
root maggots, codling moth larvae, corn earworm,<br />
cucumber beetles, cutworms, flea beetles, flea<br />
larvae, fungus gnat larvae, Japanese beetle larvae,<br />
root maggots, sod webworms and wireworms,<br />
leafminer, western flower thrips, all ants but will<br />
target any other bug they come into contact with on<br />
their travels.<br />
When to use: At any time of the year, ideal at<br />
temperatures above 16°C. Do not use under strong<br />
lights or when the sprayed crop is likely to dry within<br />
3 to 4 hours. A series of 4 or 5 weekly sprays is best to<br />
control a population.<br />
Preventative: 50 million per 400 m2 or 250 million<br />
per 2000 m2.<br />
Standard control: 50 million per 200 m2 or 250<br />
million per 1000 m2<br />

Aphidoletes Aphidimyza<br />
Type: A small, orange predatory larva, the adult is a<br />
nocturnal midge fly.<br />
How it works: Introduced as cocoons from which<br />
adults emerge. The blister packs enable monitoring<br />
and mating of adults on release. Adults lay eggs next<br />
to aphid colonies located by the scent of honeydew,<br />
larvae develop as tiny orange maggots that feed on<br />
aphids. One larva can survive on 5 large aphids but<br />
will kill up to 35 or more.<br />
Species controlled: Larvae feed on over 60 aphid<br />
species, including those common in field and<br />
protected crops within the UK.<br />
When to use: Between April and September for<br />
re-cycling generations, however they can be used all<br />
year round if supplementary lighting is available.<br />
RATES OF USE: Normally 1 Cocoon per 1 m2 per<br />
week, for local hotspots increase the rate up to 10<br />
per 1 m2

Aphid preditors<br />
Chrysoprla Carnea<br />
Type: Young larvae of predatory lacewing.<br />
How it works: An extremely active predator with<br />
large pincers used to attack, hold and suck the juices<br />
from the pest body.<br />
Species controled: Effective at controlling established<br />
aphid populations. Also feed on whitefly eggs<br />
and scales, thrips larvae, moth eggs, young mealybug<br />
nymphs and other small insects.<br />
When to use: Use on established populations of<br />
aphids or other pest colonies, ideal for organic crops.<br />
Rates of use: 10 larvae per 1 m2repeat after 2-3<br />
weeks.<br />

Orius Laevigatus<br />
Type: Predatory bugs.<br />
How it works: Voracious predator of thrips, aphids<br />
and most other soft bodied prey. They often kill lots<br />
more than they need if visible.<br />
Species controlled: Orius will attack allstages of<br />
thrip on plants and most other soft bodied pest they<br />
come into contact with<br />
When to use: Ideal to control established thrips<br />
populations on a range of plants and can be used<br />
alongside other biologicals.<br />
Rates of use: 0.5 to 1 per m2 every 2 weeks until<br />
established.<br />

Nesidiocoris Tenuis<br />
Type: Predatory Bug<br />
How it works: Nesidiocoris is voracious & hungry. It is<br />
a generalist predator. Very fast moving and a major<br />
natural enemy of pests such as whiteflies, moth eggs<br />
and other small grubs. Also enjoys feeding on other<br />
pests such as thrips, two spotted mite and aphids,<br />
making it one of the best generalist predators on the<br />
market!<br />
They tend to blend very well with plant material and<br />
like to hide, so can be difficult to see. Eggs are laid<br />
into the plant tissue and cannot be seen with the<br />
naked eye. Eggs hatch after about 7 days depending<br />
on temperature, nymphs take approximately 14 days<br />
to develop into adults. Nesidiocoris has a shorter life<br />
cycle when it feeds on eggs and larvae of whitefly or<br />
moths, than when feeding predominantly on thrips<br />
or a wide varieties of mites.<br />
They breed quickly at temperatures of 23°C and<br />
above, but generations are much slower below 20°C.<br />
Both adults and nymphs feed on pests.<br />
Species controlled: aphids, spidermite, thrips, most<br />
larvae & most other soft bodied prey<br />
Application: To apply simply sprinkle the contents<br />
of bottles evenly over the tops of the plants.<br />
10-20mL of media per release point is recommended<br />
to increase mating. When pest levels are initially low<br />
it is suggested to first apply sterilised Ephestia moth<br />
eggs over the crop to give Nesidiocoris a food source<br />
and improve initial establishment. Releases should<br />
ideally occur in low light conditions, preferably early<br />
morning or late evening to reduce possible losses of<br />
adults flying directly to vents.<br />
IMPORTANT NOTICE<br />
Nesidiocoris will feed on plant tissues. Symptoms<br />
due to plant feeding are common and tend to<br />
occur in the following situations:<br />
When there is little or no prey available and<br />
Nesidiocoris numbers are moderate to high<br />
If high numbers of predatory bugs are present in<br />
the growing points of plants<br />
In hot weather conditions Nesidiocoris will breed<br />
more quickly and take more moisture from plants<br />
Common feeding symptoms include:<br />
Spotting and holes in new leaves<br />
Necrotic feeding rings on soft plant stems and<br />
flower petioles<br />
Some signs of feeding are normal and are expected.<br />
Minor to moderate symptoms will not cause<br />
damage and are a sign of good predator levels in<br />
your crop. Economic damage can be avoided by<br />
regular monitoring. If Nesidiocoris reach high<br />
levels and numbers are not lowered, economic<br />
damage may occur including:<br />
Necrotic rings in the main stem near the heads<br />
Flower drop<br />
Uneven setting<br />
Feeding spots on fruit<br />
Irregular shaped flowers and/or fruit<br />
This can be easily controlled by introducing moth<br />
eggs as an additional food source in the absence of<br />
pests.<br />

Aphidius Colemani<br />
Type: Biological control agent contains the Braconid<br />
wasp, This wasp stings and parasitizes smaller aphid<br />
species, such as the melon or cotton aphid (Aphis<br />
gossypii), peach aphid (Myzus persicae) and tobacco<br />
aphid (Myzus nicotianae).<br />
How it works: Prevents aphid populations from<br />
developing and reduces moderate populations to<br />
non-damaging levels.Ventilation and food source<br />
available in packaging ensures adult survival in<br />
transit and storage,Suitable for all greenhouse crops.<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 />

Garden chafer /COCK CHAFER<br />
Heterorhabditis SP<br />
Type: Insect parasitic nematodes.<br />
How it works: The spray application releases nematodes<br />
which seek out insect larvae / grubs in the soil<br />
entering them through natural openings. Once<br />
inside they release their symbiotic bacteria killing<br />
the grub. Nematodes multiply in the dead organism<br />
releasing a new generation.<br />

Species controlled: The Phyllopertha horticolapresent<br />
in turf. Other species of Chafer such as the<br />
CockchaferMelolontha melolonthamay not be<br />
adequately controlled owing to differences in life<br />
cycle.<br />
When to use: In accordance with the Garden Chafer<br />
life cycle - when the larvae are close to the soil<br />
surface and when the soil surface is above 12°C.<br />
Typically treat from August to September. Later<br />
applications and the larvae may be too deep to be<br />
targeted and soil temperatures too low. Apply to wet<br />
ground (irrigate if required and afterwards). Nematodes<br />
must pass through the thatch layer and into<br />
the soil and need to be kept moist for 2 - 3 weeks.<br />
Nematodes are sensitive to sunlight so apply late in<br />
the day. Damage prevention will be noted the<br />
following spring when most damage is usually seen.<br />

£33.90<br />
Aphidoletes Aphidimyza<br />
Type: A small, orange predatory larva, the adult is a<br />
nocturnal midge fly.<br />
How it works: Introduced as cocoons from which<br />
adults emerge. The blister packs enable monitoring<br />
and mating of adults on release. Adults lay eggs next<br />
to aphid colonies located by the scent of honeydew,<br />
larvae develop as tiny orange maggots that feed on<br />
aphids. One larva can survive on 5 large aphids but<br />
will kill up to 35 or more.<br />
Species controlled: Larvae feed on over 60 aphid<br />
species, including those common in field and<br />
protected crops within the UK.<br />
When to use: Between April and September for<br />
re-cycling generations, however they can be used all<br />
year round if supplementary lighting is available.<br />
Rates of use: Normally 1 Cocoon per 1 m2 per week,<br />
for local hotspots increase the rate up to 10 per 1 m2<br />
Steinernema Kraussei<br />
Type: Microscopic nematodes.<br />
How it works: The Nematode worms seek vine<br />
Weevil Larvae in moist soil and compost, larger<br />
weevil grubs are more easily located. Nematodes<br />
enter the weevil larvae and release a small pellet of<br />
bacteria that kills the host after a few days. The<br />
parasitic wores begin to reproduce, releasing several<br />
thousnad more juvenile infective nematodes able to<br />
find and kill further weevil grubs.<br />
Species controlled: Black Vine Weevil (Otiorhynchus<br />
Sulcatus) and other soil living Larvae.<br />
When to use: Autumn and Spring are the main<br />
seasons for nematode application, although<br />
additional treatments may be needed for heated or<br />
protected crops. It is important that the soil or<br />
compost is kept moist (not water logged) They will<br />
work as low as 5°c allowing applications to be made<br />
whenever the pest is active. Apply as a drench,<br />
dilutor, watering can or through most irrigation lines.<br />
In all cases remove any fine filters and ensure water<br />
temparature is between 5 and 15°c.<br />

Phasmarhabditis Hermaphrodita<br />
OUR BEST SELLER FOR SLUGS AND SNAILS!<br />
This product has the ability to completely rid your<br />
garden of slugs and snails if guidelines are followed.<br />
We advise to over treat your area to completely<br />
irradiate slug & snail populations, if you requite any<br />
help or advice on this treatment please contact us<br />
directly at: contact@mitemunchers.com<br />
Type: Microscopic nematodes.<br />
How it works: Nematodea seek slugs and water snails,<br />
they enter the body and start to develop from<br />
infective juveniles to adults. In doing so a pellet of<br />
bacteria is released that begins to multiply spreading<br />
throught the hosts body. Infected slugs are noticable<br />
by the swollen mantle on their back, this ruptures a<br />
few days later realeasing thousands of nematodes<br />
that seek to infect further hosts.<br />

THRIP PREDATORS<br />
Hypoaspis Miles<br />
Type: Predatory mite.<br />
How it works: Mites feed on sciarid fly larvae and<br />
other 'soil' pests including springtails, thrips pupae<br />
and root mealybug. At night they move a short<br />
distance up, on to the plant foliage and will feed on<br />
mealybug and other soft bodied prey. Mites are very<br />
mobile and soon distribute themselves throughout<br />
the crop. Adults are reported to live for several<br />
months and survive up to 50 days without food,<br />
making them ideal in situations of very low pest<br />
populations.<br />

Diglyphus Isaea<br />
Type: Parasitic wasp.<br />
How it works: The wasp lays its eggs next to the<br />
leafminer larvae, damage ceases immediately as the<br />
larvae are paralysed. The wasp parasite larvae then feed<br />
on the leafminer larvae. Adult females kill and feed<br />
directly on small leafminer host larvae that are too<br />
small to support a developing parasite larva.<br />
Species controlled: Liriomyza (Tomato Leafminer) and<br />
Phytomyza (Chrysanthemum Leafminer).<br />
When to use: Ideal for use from mid-February in heated<br />
crops and April in unheated crops. Establishment will<br />
only occur if the wasp is released when sufficient<br />
numbers of reasonable sized larvae are present within<br />
the crop.<br />
Rates of use: 1 wasp per 1 m2 every week for 3 to 4<br />
weeks.

Type: Soil inhabiting nematodes that are lethal insect<br />
parasitoids that are used to control root-zone and other<br />
pests. The life cycle takes around a week and consists of<br />
an egg stage, four juvenile stages, and an adult stage.<br />
Only the first juvenile stage can infect the host. Once<br />
inside the hosts body cavity it releases a bacterium<br />
(Xenorhabdus nematophilus) that rapidly multiply and<br />
kill the host. The parasite feeds on this bacteria.<br />

When To Use: Thripline contains a synthetic version of a<br />
sexual aggression pheromone produced naturally by male<br />
occidentalis. It attracts both male and female thrips into<br />
mating aggregations. It will not attract thrips from outside<br />
of the general crop area. The pheromone is encapsulated<br />
in rubber lures (septa) and is released gradually over<br />
several weeks.<br />

Feltiella Acarisuga Purpae<br />
Type: Spider mites<br />
How it works: Red or Two-Spotted Spider-Mites<br />
(Tetranychus urticae) feed by puncturing cells and<br />
draining the contents, producing a characteristic yellow<br />
speckling of the leaf surface. They also produce silk<br />
webbing which is clearly visible at high infestation<br />
levels. At very high infestation levels, reddish-brown<br />
masses of mites can be seen hanging from the tips of<br />
leaves. When populations of spider mite are this high,<br />
the pest can be transferred accidentally to clothing, and<br />
spread around the crop by workers.<br />
