En-strip 3000 (Encarsia formosa),is a parasitic wasp that lays an egg in the whitefly larva, later emerging as a new parasitic wasp.

Once applied to the crop, the adult wasp (female) parasitizes the whitefly larva and feeds on it. The first parasitized pupae can be seen in the crop after 2 weeks. The parasitized whitefly pupa turns dark brown or black, depending on the species. At the end of the process, a new adult wasp will emerge from the pupa through a round hole, which will look for new whitefly larvae to parasitize. It is presented in the form of cards to hang on the plants. The 3000 pupae are distributed in 50 cards.

Instructions for use

• Open the box carefully inside the greenhouse.
• Fold and tear off the strips on the side opposite the installation hole.
• Hang the cards between the crop at about 75 cm below the top of the plant.
• Avoid direct sunlight.
• Do not touch the pupae.
• For an effective result, a minimum temperature of 17ºC is required for 24 hours.
• Beneficial biological organisms have a very short life cycle, so storage will be 1 to 2 days.
• At a temperature of 8-10ºC and in a dark place.
• The dose is 1 card per plant (repeat if necessary).
