Description
APHILINE VEG – Vial – 500 Individuals – This is Biological Control Unit mixture of Aphidius colemani, Aphidius ervi and Aphelinus abdominalis. It utilizes multiple parasitic wasps specifically engineered for the control and management of aphids. The blend distributes comprehensive biological control of a broad range of aphid species and sizes by merging three highly efficient parasitoids Aphidius colemani, Aphidius ervi and Aphelinus abdominalis into one vial. It is one of the most flexible and efficient mixes for pest control.
This product is specifically optimized for vegetable crops and greenhouse horticulture focusing on both common and complex aphid pest problems. It allows producers to strike a better balance managing diverse infestations such as green peach aphids, potato aphids, cotton aphids, and foxglove aphids. This triple action blend achieves exceptional control through specialized host selection, differing oviposition (egg-laying) patterns, and overlapping activity zones.
Combining Multiple Known Control Strategies as Above
Distinct Roles of Each Species
Particular to them Aphidius colemani is well known to parasitize Myzus persicae and Aphis gossypii.
Aphidius ervi has a preference for larger hosts like Macrosiphum euphorbiae and Aulacorthum solani.
Aphelinus abdominalis uses a dual mode of attack, parasitism and host feeding. They are particularly good at Aulacorthum solani and Sitobion avenae.
The combination of three agents, APHILINE VEG - Vial - 500 Individuals - Aphidius colemani + Aphidius ervi + Aphelinus abdominalis gives multilayered defense against aphids.
- Covering a broad spectrum of aphid species
- This product has documented efficacy on:
- Myzus persicae (shorthand: green peach aphid)
- Aphis gossypii (cotton aphid)
- Macrosiphum euphorbiae (potato aphid)
- Aulacorthum solani (foxglove aphid)
- Sitobion avenae (grain aphid)
- Guideline for usage to achieve maximum benefit
How to apply
As is the case with most parasitoids, they should be introduced early in the crop cycle or at the first signs of infestation. Controlled release of vial contents should take place close to hotspot hotspots whilst a generalized release is recommended for more distributed infestations. Both strategies lead to successful targets.
The three species will disperse themselves to look for ideal habitats inhabited by aphids.
Conditions needed to achieve best results
The best place for performance of these parasitoids is within shelter structures such as greenhouses and tunnels. They work best when the humidity is greater than 60% with a temperature of 18-25C. Applied chemical pesticides during or after the period can greatly influence the effectiveness and survival of the wasps so it should be avoided.
