{"product_id":"aphid-eviction-notice-kit","title":"Aphid Eviction Notice - Wasp + Midge Kit","description":"\u003cp\u003eAphids are fast tenants. A few on a new shoot give birth to live young without mating, and a week later you have a colony. The Eviction Notice pairs the two agents professional growers lean on: \u003cem\u003eAphidius colemani\u003c\/em\u003e, a tiny stingless wasp that hunts down scattered aphids and turns each one into a mummy that hatches another wasp, and \u003cem\u003eAphidoletes aphidimyza\u003c\/em\u003e, a midge whose orange larvae clear the dense clusters and take over 60 aphid species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNothing to mix and nothing to spray. The wasps go out in the morning; the midge bottle sits on damp soil at dusk. Between them they cover the aphid you can see, the aphid you can't, and the one you can't identify. Safe around people, pets and anything you plan to eat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBest for:\u003c\/strong\u003e Early or spreading colonies, or aphids you can't name.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sizes go by plant count.
