This predatory mite is effective against several types of spider mites, but will also feed on thrips and pollen. Eats on average 5 prey a day, and in the absence of prey it can even survive without food for a while. Won’t harm your plants!
Instructions:
Hang on your plant and they’re all good to go! The mites will crawl out of the pre-punched hole in the sachet, so no need to cut or empty it. Avoid moisture from setting it on soil, misting the sachet directly, and Neem oil, or other pest control products - If it has been 24 hours since a spray application, it will be okay to place the sachet near on those plants.
Beneficial bugs will be shipped in daytime temperatures between 45°F and 85°F. If temperatures are lower than 55°F in your area, we will ship the bugs with a complementary 72-hour heat pack. If you purchase live bugs and we see that your area is experiencing inclement weather or the temperature will drop below 35°F or above 90°F, we will hold the bugs until the weather clears and it is safe to ship them.
