ULTI-MITE COMBO PACK- Neoseiulus Californicus and Amblysius Swirski
Box with 50 ULTI-MITE Foil slow-release sachets (25 Californicus + 25 Swirski)
*ORDERS FOR BIOLOGICAL PEST CONTROLS MUST BE PLACED BEFORE WEDNESDAYS AT 11:30 AM PST TO BE SHIPPED THE FOLLOWING WEEK*
Each sachet contains predatory mites and supplemental food mixed with bran.
The new ULTI-MITE sachets are made of a newly developed foil that conforms to the required industrial compostable standards.
These high-tech foil sachets ensure consistent performance in variable climatic conditions. Compared to other regular paper sachets in the market, the ULTI-MITE foil sachets perform up to three times better. Trials have proven that ULTI-MITE sachets consistently deliver higher numbers of predatory mites under challenging conditions.
Adult predatory mites, nymphs, and larvae actively search for their prey and consume them. Introduce if pest presence is suspected or at the first sign of pest presence.
Use SPICAL ULTI-MITE for biological pest control of:
- Two-spotted spider mite
- Thrips
- Fruit spider mite
- Citrus red mite
- Begonia mite
- Broad mite
- Whitefly
Use SWIRSKI-ULTI-MITE for biological pest control of:
- Young larvae of various thrips species
- Eggs and larvae of whitefly
- Broad mites
- Use Swirski-Ulti-Mite as a preventive method, and when the first signs of a pest appear
Application Instructions
- Hang sachets in the crop, out of direct sunlight
- Sachets already have an exit hole
- Hold sachets by the cardboard strip at the top to avoid damaging the predatory mites
What to Expect Upon Arrival
This combo arrives as separate Swirski Ulti-Mite and Spical Ulti-Mite sachets. Do not open the sachets; little or no movement on the outside is normal. Predatory mites gradually emerge through the built-in exit holes after placement in the crop.
Important Notes
We import most biological controls fresh to help ensure customers receive active, viable beneficial insects, mites, and nematodes. Because these are living products with limited shelf life, we do not keep most biologicals stocked in-house.
Please inspect your package and product immediately upon arrival, before release. If you have any concerns about condition or viability, contact us before releasing at admin@optimizeorganics.ca with your order number and clear photos of the package and product. Once beneficials have been released, it becomes much more difficult for us to assess their condition on arrival.
Biological pest control is rarely a one-and-done release. In most active pest situations, sequential releases are needed to build and maintain beneficial populations while pest eggs continue to hatch and existing pest pressure is reduced.
Avoid spraying pesticides, oils, soaps, or other residues immediately before or after release unless compatibility has been confirmed, as these may harm beneficials.
