Amblyseius cucumeris in Bottles

Thrips Larvae? Broad Mites? Release the Adults.

When pest pressure is creeping in and you want results now, Amblyseius cucumeris in bottles delivers fast, targeted control. Each bottle contains live adult mites only—no eggs, no waiting. As soon as they’re released, they start feeding on thrips larvae, Broad Mites, Cyclamen Mites, Rust Mites, and spider mite eggs.

This isn’t your long-game strategy—it’s your quick-response tool. Perfect for spot treating light infestations or jumpstarting control while you set up a preventative plan with sachets.

Best For:

• Active but light pest pressure

• Targeted knockdown of thrips larvae and Broad Mites

• Bridging the gap before slow-release sachets take over

Targets:

• Thrips (larvae only)

• Broad Mites

• Cyclamen Mites

• Rust Mites

• Russet Hemp Mites

• Spider mite eggs and early-stage nymphs

Why Bottles?

• Immediate action. Adults begin feeding on pests upon release

• Precision or broadcast. Apply directly to plants or via hanging release boxes

• Fast-acting control. Useful for greenhouse hot spots or tight indoor grows

How They Work

Pro Tips
