Using an earlier stage of lacewings – the natural enemy of aphids, mealy bugs and Echinothrips – growers can now tackle these harmful pests more effectively and economically with Koppert Biological System's new Chrysopa-E.
Chrysopa-E makes more efficient use of the egg stage of the lacewing, Chrysoperla carnea, instead of the previously used larval stage. Chrysopa-E can be produced at lower production costs, so that the grower can use many more control agents for less money.
Chrysopa-E feeds on all types of aphids, mealy bugs and Echinothrips, and can be used preventively, which offers the grower more certainty. The product is suitable for a wide variety of crops and Koppert has achieved good results with trials in various crops. Positive results have been achieved in Canada with the use of eggs for medicinal cannabis.
