Amblyseius andersoni – Predatory Mite

How It Works: Amblyseius andersoni hunts and feeds on pests by piercing them with its mouthparts and extracting their internal fluids.

Target Pests:

Best Use:

  • Ideal for soft fruit crops and other lower-temperature environments
  • Most effective at the start and end of the growing season when other predatory mites are less active
  • Cold-tolerant 

Shelf Life: within 1-2 days of receipt.

Articles:

Important Information For Use:

  • Do not open sachets upon arrival. They already have a pin-sized hole for predatory mites to exit naturally.
  • Do not use Swirski, Thripex, Anso-mite, and Limonica on the same plants at the same time. These are generalist predatory mites, and if applied together, they may attack and eat each other instead of targeting pests. Always choose one type of generalist predatory mite per application
  • 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.

Step 1: Arrival 

Upon arrival, please ensure that you place the product out immediately or within 1-2 days of receipt. Do not store the product in the fridge; instead, place the sachets in a cool, dark place around 14°C until use.

Step 2: Placement 

Hold sachets by the cardboard strip at the top to avoid damaging the predatory mites. Hang the sachets on the middle leaves and stems of your plants, so they are not in direct sunlight.  Ensure they are evenly distributed across your crop, focusing on areas with the highest pest activity potential.  Do not cut open the sachets. These sachets come with holes. 

Step 3: Repeat Applications

To keep a predatory mite army in your crop, you will want to introduce additional sachets every 3-4 weeks. 

What to Expect Upon Arrival:

  • Sachets will be packed in a protective box to ensure safe transport.
  • Each sachet contains predatory mites in a carrier material, along with food for their survival.
  • You may notice little movement upon arrival (tiny predatory mites). This is normal. 
  • You can do a quick check on the sachets by downloading this video: Quick Check Sachets
