IPM Starter Bundle - this is a good all around bio-control option for multiple insect pests. The bundle includes (Sf) Nematodes, Rove Beetles and Californicus. This is a great starter kit for growers with working with 1000 sq ft or less.
Beneficial Nematodes (Steinernema feltiae) are tiny roundworms that parasitize various pests living in the soil, leaves and sometimes trees. They target Fungus Gnats, Codling Moth, Western Flower Thrips, Leafminers, Tuta Absoluta and some caterpillars.
Rove Beetles (Dalotia coriaria) is a generalist predator. Fast-moving and soil dwelling, it feeds on a wide range of small insects and mites but is primarily an egg predator. They target fungus gnats, and thrips.
Californicus (Neoseiulus californicus) is an effective predatory mite of a wide array of pest mites, in particular, various species of spider mites. Specifically targets: Two spotted spider mite, carmine spider mite, citrus red mite, begonia mite, broad, cyclamen mites, some gall mite species.
Persimilis (Phytoseiulus persimilis) is a predatory mite, proven outstanding, aggressive and highly effective against spider mites. Targets Pests: Two-spotted spider mite (
Tetranychus urticae), Red/Carmine spider mite (
Tetranychus cinnabarinus) and related web-spinning spider mites.
Swirskii (Amblyseius swirskii) is an efficient predatory mite used for the control of young stages of the western flower thrips as well as the eggs and young nymphs of white flies. Main targets are immature thrips (various species) and whitefly eggs and larvae. Also targets broad and cyclamen mites as well as pollen.
Andersoni (Amblyseius andersoni) is a predatory mite that feeds on small arthropod prey and pollen. Main target pests: Two-spotted spider mite (
Tetranychis uriricae) and other mites including European red, broad and cyclamen and mites. Additional targets are Western flower thrips.
Cucumeris (Neoseiulus cucumeris) is a predatory mite widely used in the bio-control of immature thrips (egg and larvae) as well as other species of mites. Main target pests are Larval stages of western flower thrips. Also targets other thrips larvae, broad mite, two-spotted spider mite, cyclamen mite and pollen.
Parasitic Wasp - Encarsia is a parasitic wasp of the
Aphelinidae family.
E. formosa can utilize at least 15 species of whitefly as hosts but the principal target is the greenhouse whitefly.
Parasitic Wasp - Colemani is a polyphagous parasitoid that attacks over 40 species of aphids. Target pests include: melon/cotton aphid (
Aphis gossypii), green peach aphid (
Myzus persicae), tobacco aphid (
Myzus nicotianae) and cannabis aphid (
Phorodon cannabis).
Stratiolaelaps (Stratiolaelaps scimitus) is a soil-dwelling predatory mite whose nymphs and adults feed on fungus gnat larva, thrips pupae and other small invertebrates. Main target pests are fungus gnat and western flower thrips pupae in the soil. Also targets Springtails (
Collembola), potworms (
Enchytraeidae) and other small soil-dwelling invertebrates.
Minute Pirate Bug (Orius insidiosus) also known as the insidiosus flower bug, is a predatory minute pirate bug feeds on plant pollen, sap and a large variety of insect prey. Targets thrips (both adult and nymphs). Also aphids, whiteflies, mites and moth eggs.
Lacewings (Chrysoperla refilabris) also known as the red-lipped green lacewing, is an insect of the
Chrysopidae family. The larvae primarily target aphids. The larvae of the BioLacewing primarily target aphids (indiscriminate of species). Secondary targets include whiteflies, mealybugs, thrips, spider mites and other soft bodied pests.
Catchmaster Sticky Cards are designed to trap the adult stages of flying insects such as winged
aphids,
thrips,
whiteflies,
leaf-miners,
shoreflies and
fungus gnats and many other pests. Sticky cards will help detect early pest infestations, keep track of insect population trends and assist in making informed and timely pest management decisions. We would recommend supplementing the information gained from sticky card counts with visual monitoring of your crops.
Catchmaster® Tree Banding Glue is a non-toxic, long-lasting adhesive compound that forms a barrier against climbing insects. Tree Banding Glue can be spread across banding material that is wrapped around vines and fruit or shade trees to prevent insects from migrating upwards. Can be used on non-porous surfaces where insects are likely to crawl.
