Mix of all Trichogramma species/card

Controls:

Mix of all Trichogramma species/cards are beneficial insects that can control Looper and Caterpillar pests.

Application Rate Recommendations for Mix of all Trichogramma species/cards:

  • 1 card per 1000 sq. ft.

How-To Use Mix of all Trichogramma species/card For Best Results:

  • Remove the card from the package and hang it on a plant or stake in the area where you want to control pests.
  • The Trichogramma will emerge from the card and begin searching for pest eggs.
  • The Trichogramma will lay its eggs inside the eggs of moths preventing the moth egg from hatching into a caterpillar. This prevents the damage caused by the feeding caterpillars, and also breaks the life cycle of the pest, effectively preventing the pest from reproducing.

Features & Benefits:

  • Mix of all Trichogramma species/card is cost-effective compared to chemical-based management of plant diseases.
  • By decomposing organic matter, Trichoderma fungi also facilitate nutrition availability for plants (biomass) and contribute to carbon and nitrogen cycles, and hence play a key role in the development of the crop.
  • Trichogramma wasps are used for control of numerous crops and plants; these include cotton, sugarcane, vegetables, sugarbeets, orchards, and forests.
  • Some of the pests controlled include cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera), codling moth (Cydia pomonella), lightbrown apple moth (Epiphyas postvittana), and European corn borer (Ostrinia).

Shipping & Returns

Because we ship live insects and want them to arrive to you as freshly as possible, we only ship Monday through Wednesday. This means your shipment will arrive Tuesday through Thursday, possibly Friday if there are any unforeseen delays such as bad weather. Since FedEx does not ship over the weekend, we do not want insects to sit in a fulfillment center where they have a greater chance of not arriving to your garden fresh-as-can-be.
