It is a good complement to Phytoseiulus persimilis present in #Ref802012 to fight against red spider mite, since it is more resistant to high temperatures and low humidity; it can be released preventively even if there is no infestation. If red spider mite is 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. This mite preys on all stages of several species of red spider mite.
Spical-Plus sachets contain 100 predatory mites at all stages. These sachets are small bio-factories that continuously produce Neoseilus californicus for several weeks.
