Description
Amblyseius cucumeris is a beneficial mite species used in pest management strategies, particularly targeting Western Flower Thrips. The formulation is designed to enhance the daily release of predatory mites onto crops. At 75°F, the total development time for Cucumeris mites ranges from 6 to 9 days, aligning well with the lifecycle of Western Flower Thrips.
These predatory mites thrive in temperatures ranging from 66 to 80°F, with an optimal humidity level of 65% to 75%. They primarily feed on the first larval stage (L1) of pests and are not effective against larger larvae or adults.
