Spical Plus

Neoseiulus californicus – Predatory Mite

How It Works: Neoseiulus californicus hunts and feeds on pests by piercing them with its mouthparts and extracting their internal fluids. The breeder sachets will release predatory mites over a 3-4 week period.

Target Pests:

• Controls all stages of the Two-Spotted Spider Mites (Tetranychus urticae).
• Controls all stages of pest mites like Broad Mite (Polyphagotarsonemus latus), Cyclamen Mite (Phytonemus pallidus), Hemp Russet Mite (Aculops cannabicola), False Spider Mites, and European Red Mite. 

Best Use: to prevent and control the above pest species when relative humidity is between 75-95% (greenhouses). 

Shelf Life: within 1-2 days of receipt.

Important Information For Use:

• Do not open sachets upon arrival. They already have a pin-sized hole for predatory mites to exit naturally.
  
• For heavy Two-Spotted Spider Mite infestations, use Spidex instead, as Spical avoids heavy webbing. Spical is best suited for prevention or light curative control with this pest when there is no webbing present.
• Predatory mites are very small—typically 0.3 to 0.6 mm in size. This means they are difficult to spot with the naked eye.
