Description
Details
Ideal for use on protected crops in warm conditions, such as peppers, cucumbers, gerbera, and eggplant. It can also be used on non-protected crops, provided that average daytime temperatures exceed 68°F/20°C.
Establishment will be fastest on crops with ample pollen, such as pepper crops, as the pollen provides an alternative, high-quality food source for the mites. Crops without pollen will experience slower establishment, but using sachets that continually release mites over several weeks will improve results.
It is best used early in the crop/pest cycle to prevent whitefly and thrips buildup since it does not feed on adult stages.
This product is active at 68°F/20°C, but its performance increases at higher temperatures.
Technical Notes:
- Activity range: 59°F to 97°F. Mites are active above and below these temperatures, but they cannot reproduce, and their performance is compromised.
- Optimum range: 68°F to 90°F. Reproduction is fastest at 86°F.
- Optimum humidity: 63% RH
- Diapause: Swirskii does not undergo diapause.
