Description
- Ladybird larvae will feed on most species of aphid and are especially effective against these kinds of infestation.
- Ladybird larvae perform particularly well in greenhouses and polytunnels and will attack local infestations of pests. We recommend using ladybird larvae on outdoor infestations only in summer or when temperatures are appropriate.
- Ladybird larvae can be used from temperatures above 10 degrees indoors or outdoors, however best levels of control are achieved above 15 degrees.
- Apply ladybird larvae at a rate of 10-20 per square metre. This would equate to around 5 per medium plant.
- The larvae will feed for around three weeks before developing into adults.
