Phytoseiulus Persimilis: The Spider Mite Slayer

Phytoseiulus persimilis, a member of the Phytoseiidae family, is a predatory mite used by horticulturists to control spider mites, particularly the two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae). Female mites lay eggs near spider mite colonies, where they feed. After hatching, larvae and nymphs actively consume spider mites, maturing into adults within about a week under favorable conditions.

They establish in your environment, providing ongoing, cost-effective protection. Using live predators as a preventive measure ensures healthier, more productive crops.
