Product Code: PH002
{Description}A fast moving predatory mite, bright red in colour, breeds very rapidly and spreads readily across foliage, ideal for both inside and outside. The mites look actively for prey (all life stages of the red spider mite) and suck them empty. The ideal temperature for predatory mites is between 15 and 25°C.

{How to Use}
Predatory mites are delivered in the adult stage. The mites need to be set out as soon as possible. Just sprinkle onto the leaves of infected plants. The best time to do this is in the morning or in the evening, to avoid high temperatures. The mites together with the vermiculite have to be spread out on the plants to be treated.
{Treatment}
The treatment should be repeated after 2 or 3 weeks. In case of severe damage, it is better to remove the damaged leaves before introducing the predators. High temperature and humidity promote a good development of the predatory mites.
