High percentage of hungry adults. Introduce weekly or bi-weekly, as needed. Introduce mites directly on infested plants or use Hanging Boxes to introduce predators neatly and concentrated on infested areas. Predatory mites in bottles are a cost-effective and targeted solution to address active infestations or to cover extensive areas common in large scale gardens, greenhouses, and agricultural areas. While predatory mites are available in all life stages, bottles contain high concentrations of hungry adults, ensuring an immediate impact on pest populations. Whether distributed directly onto plant foliage or divided into optional Hanging Boxes, the adults will actively seek out prey as the immature predatory mites hatch, develop, and continue the cycle for sustained pest management. SLOW RELEASE SACHETS WITH ALL LIFE STAGES: Don't fight pests, prevent them. Preventative and maintenance programs. Inexpensive and easy application. Steady flow of predators for 2-4 weeks. Slow Release Sachets stand out as a convenient, time-saving, and highly effective approach to both preventative and long-term mite pest management. These sachets serve as a slow-release and protective haven for immature predatory mites. Sachets are a user-friendly and convenient method of targeted application in situations where manual application might be intrusive or impractical. The distribution process is as straightforward as hanging a sachet on a plant or in areas where pest management is crucial, ensuring a consistent and reliable presence of predators.   INTRODUCTION RATES BOTTLE INTRODUCTION 2-10 mites per sq. ft, as needed. SACHET INTRODUCTION Hang 1 sachet per 6 feet, every 2-4 weeks. It's important to note that these release rates serve as general guidelines and may vary based on the specific pest species, the crop or plant being treated, and level of infestation. Proper monitoring of the infestation and the subsequent effectiveness of the released beneficial insect population is crucial for determining the success of the biological control strategy.   GOOD BUG SUPPLEMENTAL DIET Maintain your growing operation with well-fed beneficial insects as your natural defenders.
