Lacewings are general predators that eat aphids, mealybugs, scales, spider mites, thrips, whiteflies, insect eggs and beneficial insect food.




SHIPPED: Eggs are available on hangable cards or loose (bulk). Larvae are separated in compartments(called a frame; see photo to left) and used for faster control and accurate placement. Adults can be released from container to fly and lay eggs for longer control. Adults need a pollen source to maximize reproduction.




OPTIMUM CONDITION: 24-28C (75-80F).

RELEASE RATE: 1000 eggs cover 18.5 to 46.5 m. sq. (200 to 500 ft. sq.) for inside and 232 m. sq. (2500 ft. sq.) for outside.

Note: Larvae unit is a combination of young larvae and eggs that are ready to hatch.
