    Direct-Release Predatory Mites for Thrips, Whiteflies & Broad Mites – Koppert Biological Systems

 

Swirski-Mite is a loose carrier formulation of Amblyseius swirskii, a fast-moving, highly adaptable predatory mite used to control thrips larvae, whitefly pupae, and broad mites in warm and humid growing environments. These mites actively search for and feed on soft-bodied pests and are especially effective when applied early or during light infestations.

This format is ideal for broadcasting directly onto crops or for targeted applications in pest hot spots. It’s a flexible, labor-saving option for commercial growers using indoor, greenhouse, or hydroponic systems.
