Description
Californiline - 200 Mini Sachet - 25000 Individuals integrates the use of Amblyseius californicus as a generalist predatory mite that serves as an effective biological control agent in integrated pest management systems. This predator is renowned for feeding on a myriad of spider mites, particularly the pesky two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae) and the carmine mite (Tetranychus cinnabarinus). For sustainable pest mitigation that supports crops even in adverse conditions, this product is ideal for natural growers.
Feeding Behavior and Target Pests
The most economically important mite species are effectively managed through:
Amblyseius californicus is very effective in the spider mite (T. urticae) and carmine mite (T. cinnabarinus) infestation.
This predator seeks actively feeding mites of Tetranychidae and is compatible with the developmental stages of its host. In 21°C (69.8°F) it can develop in approximately 10 days. At much higher temperatures such as 30°C (86°F), development becomes much faster at only 5 days and is quicker than its prey’s lifecycle.
Synchronization assures greenhouse and open field environments of optimal predation efficiency.
Performance in Difficult Conditions
The Amblyseius californicus species is very hardy. It is active at a wide range of temperatures between 13°C to 35°C (54°F to 95°F) and at lower humidity levels than other mites. It also consumes pollen and other arthropod enemies when pest numbers are low and so is able to stay in the crop longer than most other predator species. It expands its range of crops it can survive in.
Controlled Release and Distribution Accuracy
Benefits of Mini Sachet Delivery
Californiline - 200 Mini Sachet - 25000 Individuals is individually packaged in mini sachets that are self-contained breeding units of mites. Each of these sachets provides a continuous release of predators over a period of weeks. This strategy ensures better protection and higher cumulative release than traditional methods.
In crops where plants do not touch or overlap, mini sachets are a lot more advantageous. These multiple sachets help ensure proper predator distribution, which is normally limited under natural dispersion. Their compact size allows for a higher release rate and more accurate placement within the crop.
Customized Gemini Sachets for Specific Wet Conditions
Water-Repellent Advancements
Gemini sachets were specifically designed for crops with above irrigation or wire trellis support. These dual-compartment sachets contain inner release holes that are covered by an outer fold, preventing the Gemini sachet’s contents from being wet. The benefits of Gemini sachets are:
Warding surface that protects emerging mites Patented twin-compartment structure No hooks provided, permitting ownership placement among foliage Constant predator release under moisture Dry Gemini sache compartment
Flexible Application Bulk Formats Offered in Bottles and Tubes
Manually use Californiline - 200 Mini Sachet - 25000 Individuals, which also comes in bulk:
- 2000 mites in 125 ml bottles

Rotate the container gently before use and evenly distribute the mites. Carefully sprinkle the contents onto the leaves of growing colonies of mites for direct impact.
Best Practices and Guidelines for Organized Usage
Sachet Handling Dos and Don’ts
Open boxes containing sachets in the grow area. Avoid hanging the boxes near direct heat or sunlight. Follow designated instruction to tear along provided perforations to separate individual sachets. Strategically hang sachets around crops to avoid unintentional blank spaces.
