Orius laevigatus is the final frontier for fighting a Thrips infestation.  We sell a mixture of 500 adults and nymphs to attack all stages of Thrips, one of the only biological control agents that is able to kill adult thrips.

Orius bugs will also feed on aphids, mites, whiteflies and moth eggs.

Orius laevigatus performs well on the majority of plants, particularly those with pollen producing flowers.  Orius predators work better when contained/confined.  This can be done by isolating the plants you are treating to one room and closing them in or covering the plants with netting.  More about netting here

Products should be ordered by Monday 10am for despatch the same week, get in touch if you would like a different despatch day.
