Aphidius colemani – Parasitic Wasp

How It Works: Adult Aphidius colemani emerge from aphid mummies and begin laying eggs inside live aphids. As the next generation of parasitic wasps develops, the aphid transforms into a leathery mummy. The adult wasp later emerges through a small hole at the rear of the mummy. 

Target Pests: Controls the cotton aphid (Aphis gossypii), tobacco aphid (Myzus persicae var. nicotianae), and peach-potato aphid (Myzus persicae var. persicae).

Best Use: When wanting to prevent or control the above aphids.

Shelf Life: within 1-2 days of receipt.

Important Information for Use:

  • Immediate Action: This product starts working as soon as it is introduced to the plants. However, visible results, such as aphids turning into mummies, will become noticeable after 14-21 days.

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 refrigerator; instead, place the bottles in a cool, dark location at around 14°C until use.

Step 2: Placement

Spread material on rock wool slabs or in application boxes (Dibox). Make sure the material remains dry and stays at its introduction site for a few days.
