Eretline - 20 Blister - 5000 Individuals

ERETLINE - 20 Blister - 5000 Individuals - Eretmocerus eremicus is an effective biological control agent developed for Trialeurodes vaporariorum and Bemisia tabaci whiteflies. Each of the 5000 parasitic wasps in this product was bred under optimal conditions to maximize efficiency in controlling horticultural and ornamental crop whitefly infestations. ERETLINE - 20 Blister is offered in 20 blisters for convenient use and is a sustainable, residue-free option for chemical pesticides.  

These parasitoids are known for their resilience under extreme heat and ideal greenhouses or open fields due to dual parasitism and host-feeding behavior. The stepwise release ensures even coverage and prolonged suppression.  

Biological Profile and Lifecycle  

The Role of Eretmocerus eremicus  

Eretmocerus eremicus is an extremely small, yellowish parasitic wasp that is about 0.6 mm in size. Its reproductive strategy involves laying eggs underneath the whitefly nymphs. Internal parasitism means the larva has to penetrate the host and then mature inside to kill it. This biological behavior slows down the reproduction speed of whiteflies in crops significantly.

This blistering species is well-known for their adaptability to various climatic zones and are most effective at temperatures between 75–85°F. The blistering parasites are the best performers in arid and semi-arid regions in comparison to all other parasitoids because of their greater heat tolerance. 
 
Application Strategy 
 
Best Practices for Use 

The packaging type ERETLINE - 20 Blister allows for easy and precise distribution throughout infested areas. Parasitized whitefly nymphs contained within each blister begin to hatch over several days, allowing for a staggered release. 

• For preventive use: Apply at early stages of the crop cycle for better results. Do not exceed low infestation levels. 
• For curative action: Increase overall release rate and frequency escalating set intervals when whiteflies are already present and established.  
• Suspend blisters where whiteflies are most active and above the upper canopy. The upper canopy is the best position. 

Refrain from releasing in direct sunlight or windy conditions. Exposure to chemicals during and after lowers the parasitoid activity and should be avoided. Moderately humid conditions should be maintained in addition to the other environment restrictions.

Compatible Environments and Target Crops

ERETLINE – 20 Blister is primarily effective under controlled conditions, for example, in greenhouses, but also for temperate zone outdoor use. Primary inclusive:

• Greenhouse Vegetable (Tomato, Cucumber, Pepper)

• Ornamental Plants and Nursery Stock

• Soft Fruit Plantations (Strawberry, Raspberry)

• Culinary Herbal Plants and Leafy vegetables

It can also be used within the framework of an IPM program and used in combination with predatory mites and other biological control agents.

Why Choose This Biological Agent?

• Heavily infests whiteflies by host feeding and parasitism

• Effective under broad range of climatic conditions

• Easy-to-use packaging supports stepped release

• Safe to harvest pesticide residues and any biocides from the environment used before or during the cultivation.

• Safe for beneficial and pollinating insects

• Improves plant health through lowered pest pressure

• Suitable for planned and reactive pest pressure mitigation

• Environmentally responsible option to chemical sprays

Storage, Packaging, and Handling

ERETLINE – 20 Blister should be stored at temperatures of 6 to 10°C (43 to 50°F) before use. Do not freeze. Maintain recommended application dates to ensure high viability of the product.

Each package contains 20 blister cards where each blister is scientifically stocked with  parasitized hosts ideal for timely hatching. Caution: Step precision while handling to evade emergence in damage or chronic in loss.
