Use for: Pests - Young larvae of various thrips species and eggs and larvae of whitefly.

How it works: Mode of action - Predatory mites multiply in the sachet and disperse into the crop over a period of several weeks. They pierce the prey with their sucking mouthparts and suck out the contents.

Presentation: Sachets in cardboard box.

Carrier: Bran.

Directions for use:

Application.

Hang sachets in sheltered locations in the crop, not exposed to direct sunlight

Sachets already have an exit hole

Hold sachets by the cardboard strip at the top, to avoid damaging the predatory mites

Dosage:

The dosage of Swirski-Mite Plus depends on climate, crop and pest density and should always be adjusted to the particular situation. Start introduction preventively or as soon as the first pest mites are detected in the crop. Use at least 4,000 sachets per ha and hang them evenly spaced in the crop. Release should be repeated after 4 weeks if the pest is not controlled. Consult a Koppert advisor or a recognized distributor of Koppert products for advice on the best strategy for your situation.
