Aphidius Ervi 250 Natural Aphid Control

Aphids can infest most crops and cause serious damage to your plants by:
•    Sucking plant sap, weakening growth.
•    Producing sticky honeydew, which leads to sooty mould.
•    Spreading plant viruses, causing distorted or stunted growth.

Aphidius Ervi is a natural parasitic wasp that helps control larger aphid species, such as potato aphids and glasshouse potato aphids. It’s a great choice for home gardeners who want to protect their plants without using chemical sprays.

How It Works:
1.    The tiny wasps seek out aphids and lay their eggs inside them.
2.    The eggs hatch into larvae, killing the aphids and forming papery mummies.
3.    New wasps emerge and continue to hunt aphids, providing ongoing protection.
Reduces the need for chemical insecticides. Targets aphids that damage plants and spread disease. Won’t harm bees or other beneficial insects.

Easy to Use:
Simply release Aphidius Ervi 250 onto your plants early in the season or when you spot aphids. They’ll do the work for you.

Dose rate:

1 individual per m²

Up to 5 individuals per m² if small colonies of aphids are observed.
