Adalia bipunctata
Two Spotted Ladybird

APHIDALIA: Adalia bipunctata (Two Spotted Ladybird)

Target : Many species of aphids of all stages

Aphidoletes aphidimyza
Gall-Midge

APHIDEND: Aphidoletes aphidimyza (gall-midge)

Targets a wide range of aphid species. APHIDEND is recommended especially when aphid colonies are present or when unable to identify aphid species.

APHIDEND is a small (2.5mm) fly-like insect called a gall midge. The adult gall midge is active only at night. It finds aphids by their smell and lays its eggs in the aphid colony. When the larvae hatch from the eggs they attack and eat many aphids. APHIDEND attacks a wide range of aphid species and is especially effective when aphid colonies are present. APHIDEND is easy to apply simply open the bottle and place it near your aphid infestations. Please try to keep the bottle away ants. APHIDEND should be applied at a minimum of one pupa per square foot.

Aphelinus abdominalis
parasitic wasp

APHILIN: Aphelinus abdominalis (parasitic wasp)

Target: Aphids, in particular the potato aphid Macrosiphum euphorbiae and the glasshouse potato aphid Aulacorthum solani. APHILIN also has a side effect against Myzus (green peach aphid)

Aphidius colemani
parasitic wasp

APHIPAR: Aphidius colemani (parasitic wasp)

Targets aphids, in particular the cotton aphid, tobacco aphid and the green peach potato aphid. Use APHIPAR especially when aphid infestations are beginning.

APHIPAR is an amazing parasitic wasp that stings its aphid victim and lays its egg directly inside the aphid. In a couple of days, the aphid will die, begin to swell up, and as it swells take on a leathery appearance. Inside this leathery aphid mummy a new parasitic wasp is developing and will soon emerge. Once the new parasitic wasp emerges and it is able to fly, it will sting more aphids, lay more eggs, and continue the cycle. To apply APHIPAR, just open the bottle and divide the material into four or five seperate piles, be sure to keep the piles dry and away from ants. APHIPAR should be applied at a minimum of one pupa per two square feet.

Muscidifurax raptorellus
Spalangia cameroni
parasitic wasp

BIOPAR : Muscidifurax raptorellus and Spalangia cameroni (parasitic wasps)

Target : Different (stable) flies, like the housefly (Musca domestica), biting stable flies (Stomoxys spp.), and the lesser housefly (Fannia spp.), which comprise 95 percent of the flies in manure accumulations.

Chrysoperla carnea
Lacewing

CHRYSOPA: Chrysoperla carnea (lacewing)

Targets aphids and to a lesser extent many other pest insects, like whitefly, thrips and moth eggs

CHRYSOPA or lacewing larvae are one of natures deadliest predators. They may be small, but in the insect world they are greatly respected. A single lacewing larva will kill and sometimes eat scores of aphids and other pest insect each day. This makes CHRYSOPA a great choice for taking an existing aphid population and making it smaller...quickly. Sprinkle CRYSOPA on the effected plants, its as simple as that. Use a minimum of one to two larvea per square foot.

Cryptolaemus montrouzieri
parasitic beetle

CRYPTOBUG: Cryptolaemus montrouzieri (predatory beetle)

Targets many mealybug species in all stages. CRYPTOBUG is recommended with increasing mealybug infestations and when the mealybugs are found in colonies.

Mealybug is the common name for an unarmored scale insect that exudes a granular white secretion, giving it a mealy appearance. In most cases, an infestation of these destructive bugs makes a terrible mess of your treasured plants. CRYPTOBUG is the mealybug nemesis. This predatory beetle and its larval offspring attack mealybugs in all stages of development. Koppert recommends the use one CRYPTOBUG adult per square foot to help alleviate most mealybug infestations. They should be sprinkled on the leaves of the infested plants at a rate of 1 CRYPTOBUG adult per square foot. CRYPTOBUG should be distributed in the evening when light levels are low. For CYRPTOBUG to be successful temperatures above 60°F (average) are required.

Especially useful in warmer weather when whitefly are more active and when unable to identify type of whitefly. ENERMIX comes to you as small cards with attached pupae. You simply hang the cards directly on the plants that are effected by whitefly or on plants that you want to keep whitefly away from. Apply at a minimum rate of one wasp per square foot
