Adaline

Get Rid of Aphids Fast with This All-Natural Solution

Adaline is a high-performance biological product based on Adalia bipunctata - the two-spotted ladybug. It is an effective natural predator of aphids that works aggressively to suppress pest populations without chemical pesticides. It’s a perfect fix for growers looking for immediate results with ecological renewal that’s sustainable in the long run.

Aphids are something ladybugs feed on, both in the larvae stage and the adult stage, ladybugs are some of the most efficient predators in the world and are known to feed on aphids at various stages of their lifecycle. This beneficial insect starts hunting aphid colonies as soon as they are released in the growing area, and feeding quickly and successfully reduces populations.

Here, we discuss how Adaline can become an integral component of your IPM strategy, whether you’re growing in a greenhouse, outdoor setup, or tunnel crop system. This, when combined with parasitic products such as Aphiline, makes a proven one-two punch controlling both the current outbreaks while at the same time giving increased long-term aphid control.

How Adaline Works

Behavior of Adalia bipunctata

The key to Adaline’s effectiveness is in the biology and feeding behavior of the two-spotted ladybug. Adult ladybugs are in constant motion, roaming around in search of aphids and feeding on them in high quantities — they can consume up to 60 aphids per individual per day.

They also position their eggs close to aphid colonies, so that when their larvae hatch, they will have immediate access to prey. The L3 and L4 larvae are especially voracious and can consume entire colonies of aphids with great speed. These predators not only consume existing infestations but also help to prevent resurgences by interrupting the reproductive cycles of the aphids.

Dual-Stage Control

Larvae: Take swift action against aphids at their most vigorous growth periods

Imago: Once consistent feeding and breeding in the crop environment

Lay Eggs: New Generations Keep the Predator Population Strong

Adaline’s semi-immediate and organic mixing then gives real world results that are both visible and lasting.

Target Pests

Wide Species of Aphid Compatibility

Adaline has been formulated to tackle an impressive number of common aphid species, such as:

Myzus persicae (Green peach aphid)

Black Bean Aphid (Aphis fabae)

Cotton aphid (Aphis gossypii)

Aphid (Macrosiphum euphorbiae)

Its generalist feeding behavior can also confer suppression of other soft-bodied insect pests, enhancing overall crop health in a roundabout way.

Implementation in the Crop

When does it happen—Lifecycle and timing of applications

When released, the ladybugs will move around the crop area looking for aphids. When they eat and breed, they set off a self-perpetuating cycle of domination:

Scouting and consuming aphids

Egg laying on high-infestation areas

Continued control cycle via larval predation

Can it Coot? Adult re-emergence from larvae expands focus

Not only does that mean Adaline doesn’t just cut existing populations, but they also prevent their return through active predation.

So it’s very particular to the environments they’re accustomed to, you know?

Active from as low as 12–13°C

Suitable for spring application in greenhouses and field crops

Can establish stable populations when their food is ample

Application Guidelines

Safe & Effective Use — Best Practices

When it comes to Adaline, using and applying the product correctly is vital.

Delay opening the container in cooler part of the day (series in the morning or afternoon)

Shake well and rotate while applying to spread the contents evenly

Spray directly onto foliage infested with aphids

For denser canopies: Universal Release Boxes (URBs)

• Keep the carrier material on plants surfaces

Use larvae within hours of delivery to prevent cannibalization

Storage Instructions

Meanwhile, their saucisse is 29 days into a four-week ferment in the cellar, which below 12°C, dark and cool.

Store away from heat sources and do not freeze

Prepare when delivered for maximum viability

Recommendations

Adaline is a great option to consider for any grower looking for a high-performance, environmentally friendly aphid solution. Adaline reduces chemical input and promotes a healthier growing environment by integrating both short-term active predation and longer-term species and biological presence.

Apply it in hotspots with dense aphid populations, and combine its effects with longer-flourishing parasitoid products like Aphiline to provide a complete IPM program. Monitor activity post each release, and continue regular releases in areas where there is constant pest pressure.

Adaptable, easy-to-use, with great performance, Adaline is a trusted partner for sustainable aphid management in a range of crop systems.
