PRODUCT DESCRIPTION & PACKAGING

BioSwirski (Amblyseius swirskii) is an efficient predatory mite used for the control of young stages of the western flower thrips as well as the eggs and young nymphs of white flies. It also feeds on red spider mites as well as on broad mites.
The establishment of BioSwirski can be improved by providing supplemental feed when none is present, such as BioArtFeed which contains high premium decapsulated Artemia cysts.

This efficient predatory mite is a good option for thrips and whitefly management on many ornamental and vegetable crops. Swirskii does not hibernate and develops well in warm, humid environments.

BioSwirski arrives in a shaker containing 25,000/50,000/200,000 mobile stages (adults and juveniles) of A. swirskii.
The product is mixed with a bran-based media and includes a dosing cap that facilitates application

BioSwirski is also available in sachets of 250 predatory mites each or in "Combo bottle" that contains BioSwirki mixed with Artemesia (high premium decapsulated Artemia cysts).
