Product details
The larvae of Sphaerophoria rueppellii are voracious aphid predators, consuming up to 200 aphids during development. They actively seek out colonies in dense crop canopies, providing rapid and localized control. The larvae develop into adult hoverflies, which are very mobile in the environment and are very effective at searching for aphid populations through a crop canopy, the adults play a dual role as they feed on pollen and nectar, supporting pollination.
Within this product the Sphaerophoria rueppellii arrive in the pupal stages and then develop into adults, which will then search the area for aphid colonies to lay eggs in.
This formulation allows for application of Sphaerophoria rueppellii pupae through the Natutec applicator System. Please contact us if you are interested in discussing biological application equipment for your site.
