Californicus predatory mites in bags for preventive control of spider mites, 10 small bags.
Orders placed by Sunday evening will be shipped the following Tuesday.
Neoseiulus (Amblyseius) californicus is a predatory mite used in the preventive control of spider mites. They are supplied in 10 small bags. These are hung out in the plants before, or when, spider mites are observed.
Californicus is a 0.5mm large, transparent to light yellow predatory mite. It feeds, for example, on the common spider mite species, the greenhouse spider mite, which can affect both ornamental and vegetable plants.
Californicus is a hardy predatory mite that can also survive on other mites and pollen. They are therefore well suited to use as a preventative against spider mites, as they can be released even before spider infestations are observed.
Compared to the commonly used spider mite Phytoseiulus persimilis, Californicus can handle a wider temperature range. They can be used at temperatures between 8 and 35°C, with an optimum of 20-33°C. They are also less sensitive to drier environments.
Californicus is also used to control red spider mites, such as citrus and fruit tree mites, which the common spider mite does not attack.
However, in the event of widespread infestation of greenhouse spider mites, it is recommended spider mite ( Phytoseiulus persimilis), which is then more effective.
User manual
It is advisable to plant Californicus early in the growing season (in greenhouses in May/June) before the spider mites become too established.
The bags are hung on the plant, on branches or leaf stalks. Use 1 bag per plant, or about 2-3 bags/m² .
The predatory mites will get out of the bag and up over the plant. The bags will last 4-6 weeks. The bag does not need to be perforated further, it has small holes where the mites can come out.
Avoid the bag coming into contact with the soil and hang it out of direct sunlight.
The predatory mites should be released immediately after receipt, but can be stored for a couple of days at 15 degrees.
