Spical is a good complement to pHytoseiulus to combat red spider mites, as it is more resistant to high temperatures and low humidity; it can be released preventively even if there is no infestation.
This mite preys on all stages of several species of red spiders.
Instructions for use
If red spiders are present, introduce 250 to 500/m2. Repeat the release if necessary. It should be introduced when the first red spiders appear and they can be found on the underside of leaves actively searching for their prey.
Also available in Spical-Plus sachets containing 100 predatory mites at all stages.
The dose of Spical is 250 to 500 individuals per square meter and the dose of Spical-Plus (sachet) is 1 sachet per plant (1 sachet for every 3 plants if the plants touch each other). Always use Spical together with Spidex.
Important
This product is used as a preventative. It eats eggs and stage 1 of spiders. It must be released as a preventative before you see spiders. If there is no spider, they will feed on the food in the product formulation (both bottle and sachet).
