What is Anso-Mite Plus?

Anso-Mite Plus is a biological pest control containing the predatory mite Amblyseius andersoni. The mites are supplied in slow-release sachets that can be hung directly onto plants.

What pests does Amblyseius andersoni control?

Amblyseius andersoni targets a range of pest mite species and is particularly useful for the biological control of spider mites.

Can Anso-Mite Plus be used for spider mite control?

Yes. Amblyseius andersoni is a predatory mite that feeds on spider mites and can be incorporated into preventative and ongoing biological control programmes.

Why use Amblyseius andersoni in cooler conditions?

Amblyseius andersoni remains active at lower temperatures than many other predatory mite species, making it particularly useful during cooler periods early and late in the growing season.

What does diapause mean?

Diapause is a period of reduced activity that helps spider mites survive unfavourable conditions. Amblyseius andersoni can be useful for targeting spider mites around these periods, helping reduce residual populations before they become established.

How do I use Anso-Mite Plus sachets?

Hang the sachets directly onto plants and distribute them throughout the treatment area. The sachets gradually release predatory mites, which move onto the crop in search of prey.

Do I need to open the sachets?

No. The sachets are designed to provide a gradual release of predatory mites. Use them according to the instructions supplied with the product.
