Our BioVials and BioPacks contain Swirskii predatory mites in various concentrations. They are the absolute best option for most Thrip species found in North America. It targets all stages except for winged adults. Swirskii is also a formidable Whitefly predator. Like with Thrips, Swirskii targets all stages except for the winged adult Whitefly.
While the Amblyseius Swirskii does feed on all stages of Spider, Broad and Russet mites, they do not provide control in active infestations. They do not hunt, eat and reproduce at rates required to save yields on their own.
In instances where active infestations exist, we recommend using a Type II predator like the Neoseiulus Californicus , Neoseiulus Fallacis or Galendomus Occidentalis.
Farmers generally use Amblyseius Swirkskii as a preventative, generalist predator
Type II predators are the best choice in that situation. As a formidable generalist predators, farmers utilize Swirskii's extensive palate by apply these to the landscape surrounding their crop or greenhouse to minimize the threat of a variety of local pests.
