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

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

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