Description +

Encarsia formosa are tiny beneficial parasitic wasps used for targeted biological control of whitefly on greenhouse and indoor plants. The supplied cards are hung among the affected plants, where emerging Encarsia actively search for and parasitise whitefly larvae. Introduce early, ideally when whitefly are first detected, and distribute the cards evenly throughout the treatment area. For best activity, maintain suitable greenhouse conditions and avoid placing the cards in direct sunlight.

 

How to Use +
Open the pack at the treatment area and carefully separate the Encarsia cards. Hang them evenly among the affected plants, avoiding direct sunlight and contact with the pupae. Introduce as soon as possible after delivery and repeat introductions if required according to the pack instructions.
