Amblyseius swirskii Treatment Bottles

Immediate Pest Control. Tiny. Precise. Relentless.

When thrips, whiteflies, or russet mites start showing up in real numbers, Swirskii in bottles is how you show them the door.

This bottle is filled with live, fast-moving adult Amblyseius swirskii, a tan, near-microscopic predator that’s built to hunt down soft-bodied pests at all life stages. Ideal for treatment (not just prevention), these mites don’t need warm-up time—they get to work the moment they’re released.

You may not see them (they’re only ~0.5mm), but if you squint hard enough, you might spot a blur of beige on the move. Whether you see them or not, they’re already working on your behalf.

Targets:

  • Thrips (larvae)

  • Whiteflies (eggs and larvae)

  • Broad mites

  • Russet hemp mites

  • Cyclamen mites

How to Use

  1. Gently rotate the bottle to evenly distribute mites throughout the carrier.

  2. Sprinkle the contents directly onto leaves, into plant canopies, or onto small piles of substrate near infested areas.

  3. Avoid overhead watering or heavy misting immediately after application.

  4. Release in the early morning or evening for best results—avoid midday heat.

Optimal conditions: 68–96°F with moderate to high humidity. Swirskii mites cannot survive freezing temperatures—indoor or greenhouse use recommended in colder months.

Results You Can Expect

  • Visible pest suppression within 2–5 days

  • Eggs hatch in 2–3 days, with full development to adult in 7–10 days

  • Adult mites live 20–30 days, feeding and reproducing throughout

Safe for Everything But the Pests

Swirskii mites are completely safe for humans, pets, and plants. No biting, no stinging, no damage—just biological pest control at its most precise.

How Much Do You Need?

  • Light infestations: 5–10 mites per sq. ft.

  • Heavy infestations: 25,000+ mites for large or high-pressure areas

  • Agricultural use: 25,000+ mites per acre

Pro Tips

  • Apply at first sign of pests—don't wait.

  • Avoid recent pesticide applications (residues can kill predatory mites).

  • For ongoing protection, bundle with Swirskii sachets for long-term prevention—and get a discount when you do.

Shipping & Storage

  • Shipped overnight with a live delivery guarantee

  • Use immediately upon arrival. If needed, store at 50–60°F for up to 24 hours.

Oh no! I’m sorry to hear you’re disappointed with how your order arrived. If your shipment was delivered within the last few days, please email us at info@fgmnnursery.com so we can review it together and figure out the best next step.

For future reference, we do have strict timelines for reporting possible issues.
