Erviline - Vial 30 Ml - 1000 Individuals

ERVILINE – Vial 30 mL – 1000 Individuals – Aphidius ervi is a self-sufficient biological pest control solution designed for commercial growers aiming to economically manage large-bodied aphids within expansive greenhouse or protected cropping systems. This solution contains 1000 Aphidius Ervi active parasitoids in a 30 mL vial which offers effortless, clean, and environmentally friendly pest control, particularly for oversized species which smaller parasitoids are often incapable of managing.

This product is specifically designed for rapid pest control dispersal and strong population establishment of parasitoids within crops infested with aphids such as Macrosiphum euphorbiae, Aulacorthum solani, and Sitobion avenae. It is a crucial tool for integrated pest management (IPM) systems aimed at eliminating pesticide use, reducing chemical imprint, and fostering sustainable pest resistance over time.

Biological Mode of Action of Aphidius ervi

Parasitoid Lifecycle and Efficacy

Aphidius ervi acts as an efficient endoparasitoid of large aphids. Endoparasitoid parasites have a unique reproductive strategy wherein the female searches for aphid colonies and injects an egg in each chosen target. The parasitoid larva will mercilessly slaughter the aphid host and consume it, the host will perish, the parasite will transform the mummy into which the aphid’s and soften interior into which it can survive. Exoskeleton encased mummies of hardened succumbed appendages will be left behind which grant the succeeding generation and population control in crops emerge from these mummies continue the cycle and sustain population control within crops.

Pest Aphid Species Controlled

This formulation is most useful for the control of:

• Macrosiphum euphorbiae (potato aphid)
• Aulacorthum solani (foxglove aphid)
• Sitobion avenae (grain aphid)
• Other large-bodied controlable aphids in captivity
• Application Instructions and Prerequisites for Optimal Success

Usage Practices

To maximize outcomes, make releases nearest to areas where aphids are heavily infesting or in suspected hotspots. Dispense evenly and broadcast concentrate on the crop with special attention to the canopy and the lower sides of leaves where aphids tend to aggregate. The large volume of 1000 individuals permits rapid population establishment and field coverage.

Environmental Considerations

The parasitoids have greater efficiency in the presence of:

• Ambient temperatures between 18 - 25 °C
• Humidity of over 60%
• No chemical insecticides in the prior days
• Under these conditions, adult activity and reproduction together with parasitism is the most successful.
• Advantages of ERVILINE - Vial 30 mL - 1000 Individuals - Aphidius ervi
• Aphid control is achieved instantly

Effective for Scaling

• Immediate and extensive aphid suppression is achievable
• Ideal for large compartments in greenhouses or for retail plant growing
• Massive parasitism results in rapid population removal
• Sustainable and Residue-free
• There are no harmful or toxic synthetic chemicals or residues
• Most suitable for organic and ecological farming systems
• Inoffensive to pollinating and beneficial insects, as well as worker insects
• Enhances Biological Balance
• Integrates with multi-species IPM systems
• Works well with other supplementary predator and parasitoid pests
• Better Cumulatively upholds ecological crop stability over time

Final Words

For swift, scalable, and eco-friendly aphid suppression, ERVILINE - Vial 30 mL - 1000 Individuals - Aphidius ervi is the primary choice for commercial crop producers. The high count of parasitoids andcompatibility with large scale operations makes this product unparalleled in biological control for complex aphid-infested crops.

This augments any integrated pest management system by minimizing the use of chemicals while maintaining the standards of cultivated produce. When administered actively and preventively, this vial is capable of ensuring sustainable control while nurturing crop health and resilience in the long term.
