Amblyseius andersoni
Adaptable. Tough. Ready to Work.
When your growing environment won’t commit to a climate and your pest problem won’t commit to just one species, Amblyseius andersoni is your go-to. This predatory mite thrives in the chaos—temperatures from 42–100°F, humidity between 40–90%—and tackles a long list of mites other predators can't keep up with.
Each bottle contains fast-moving adults that get to work the moment they’re released, delivering immediate suppression of spider mites, broad mites, russet mites, cyclamen mites, eriophyid mites, and gall mites. No eggs. No lag. Just results.
