Protect your plants from aphid infestations with this effective biological solution. Each pack contains 250 cocoons of Aphidoletes aphidimyza, and with four packs included, you’ll receive 1,000 natural predators to support a healthy garden or greenhouse environment.

These beneficial insects specifically target aphids, reducing pest populations without the need for chemical treatments. Safe to use around pollinators such as bees and ladybirds, they provide an eco-friendly approach to plant protection.

How It Works

Once hatched, these midges locate aphid colonies and lay eggs nearby. The developing larvae, appearing as tiny orange maggots, actively feed on aphids, helping to control outbreaks effectively. The included blister packs support monitoring and allow adults to mate upon release.
