Description
Amblyline - bran-vermiculite - 400 Mini Sachet - 200000 Individuals: Amblyseius cucumeris provides a consistent and easy-to-manage approach for thrips larvae biocontrol in greenhouse, indoor, and ornamental crop settings. This product contains 400 mini sachets, each containing a mixture of bran-vermiculite along with live predatory mites, aggregating to 200,000 Amblyseius cucumeris individuals. The sachets are specifically designed for very slow, constant release, permitting biological control throughout many weeks.
The sachet system is the best option for growers looking to achieve balanced and lasting pest control that does not require daily physical effort. Each sachet serves as a miniature package, releasing Amblyseius cucumeris actively feeding mites into the crop canopy where they proactively hunt and eliminate the immature thrips before significant harm can be inflicted.
Target Pest and Predatory Behavior
Amblyline - bran-vermiculite - 400 Mini Sachet - 200,000 Individuals
Amblyseius cucumeris is engineered for effective suppression of the most common larval-stage thrips and similar pests, including: Western flower thrips (Frankliniella occidentalis)
Onion thrips (Thrips tabaci)
Other small arthropods present in the early development stages
The predatory mites operate best in moderate humidity and temperatures ranging from 68°F to 77°F (20°C to 25°C).
Once they emerge from the sachets, they actively locate and consume thrips larvae on leaves and stems, disrupting the pest’s life cycle and protecting plants from developmental damage and disease transmission.
Application Format and Usage
The mini sachet system is engineered for ease of use. Each sachet contains a breeding population of Amblyseius cucumeris, ensuring mites are gradually introduced into the environment for up to 3-6 weeks.
To Apply
Suspend one sachet for every 1–2 plants, or every 1–2 square meters for more densely situated crops.
Sachets can be clipped to the stems or trellises and can be hung within the crop canopy using clips or integrated hangers.
Avoid placing in areas that are too hot or too dry.
Sachets can be utilized in greenhouses, vertical farms, and propagation chambers or alongside potted ornamental plants. They're particularly useful for growers trying to reduce effort while still holding on to consistency in pest management.
Amblyline - bran-vermiculite - 400 Mini Sachet - 200000 Individuals Amblyseius cucumeris is fitted for use with a generous number of crops with thrips infestations, including:
Greenhouse vegetables: cucumbers, peppers, and eggplants. Soft fruits: strawberries and blueberries. Ornamentals: flowering and foliage plants, hanging baskets and potted plants.
These microscopic predators have become critical participants in IPM schemes because they integrate so easily with other pesticides. An ecosystem can remain intact while these mites are introduced since there are no chemicals employed during the sachet release process which would destroy pollinator activity.
Storage, Handling, and Packaging
Each sachet is made out of breathable material that permits mite escape while maintaining ideal humidity for further development inside. The bran-vermiculite substrate supports ongoing mite reproduction within the sachet.
Storage and handling suggestions
Store sachets between 42° F and 50° F (5° C to 10° C) For maximum effectiveness, use within 24-48 hours of delivery Do not refrigerate below 41° F (5°C), or freeze Keep sachets horizontal and out of direct sunlight before use The 400 pack option provides ample coverage for commercial-scale operations or large bays within a greenhouse.
Integration with Other Biological Agents
Amblyline - bran-vermiculite- 400 Mini Sachet - 200000 Individuals Amblyseius cucumeris is compatible with numerous biocontrol agents like Orius spp. for adult thrips, or Stratiolaelaps scimitus for soil dwelling pests. The sachets provide a constant population of the predators without flooding the crop with too many mites at once.
To achieve successful integration
Preventive Measures
Ecosystem-based pest control framework focuses on.
A range of insecticides shouldn’t be used.
Pest population monitoring should be done at regular intervals to check performance.
Predator species supplementation should be done as required to fill the coverage gap.
Amblyline - bran-vermiculite - 400 Mini Sachet - 200000 Individuals Amblyseius cucumeris provides biological pest control services with long retention times and low-maintenance efforts. These replaceable sachets reduce labor demands while providing consistent, effective protection against thrips infestations. For optimal results:
Sachets should be deployed preventively or at the first sign of pest presence.
Sachets should be spaced evenly across the canopy for uniform coverage.
Crop environment should be monitored on a weekly basis and moderate humidity maintained.
Final Words
All of these recommendations aim to ease the workload while enhancing effectiveness in battling stubborn pests. The delivery method of the product directly addresses the key challenges identified — effectiveness, ease of use, and safety for organisms in the ecosystem.
