Parasitic wasp Aphidius colemani

Packaging:

100 ml bottle, hatches 500 parasitic wasps / Each bottle contains mummies mixed with wood-chips

When to use Aphipar?

Use Aphipar for biological pest control of primarily:

  • cotton aphid (Aphis gossypii)
  • tobacco aphid (Myzus persicae var. nicotianae)
  • peach-potato aphid (Myzus persicae var. persicae)

Aphipar is especially useful at the beginning of aphid infestations.

How does Aphipar work?

Adult female parasitic wasps lay their eggs parasitically in the aphids, causing them to swell and harden into leathery, grey/brown mummies. The first adult parasitic wasps emerge through a round hole at the rear of the mummy approximately 2 weeks after introduction.

Application Aphipar

  • Spread the material in a shady spot, on a surface that will not get wet, close to your roses. A overturned ice cream container wedges open to cover the wood chips is practical.
  • Make sure the material remains dry and is not moved from its introduction site for at least a few days
  • Use the peel-off label to mark where the product has been introduced

Best working conditions Aphipar

Efficacy reduces at temperatures above 30°C.
