| Item Description: |
|
(A. matricariae) are our newest tool in the battle against aphids, They lay their egg inside the aphid, which then develops into a parasite larva. Before finishing development inside the aphid egg, the larva spins a cocoon, turning the unfortunate aphid into a leathery "mummy". The adult parasite then flies out from a circular hole cut in the mummy. For preventative control small releases will get these established, repeat regularly through the season. These are used in European greenhouses, but are new here. Supplied near hatching, or as adults (no choice).It is highly recommended that you be there when they arrive. If it is too cold, (below freezing) or too hot (above 90F), they could die.
