Use Swirski-Mite for:
  • Young larvae of various thrips species
  • Eggs and larvae of whitefly
  • Tarsonemid mites

Mode of action

Predatory mites pierce their prey with their sucking mouthparts and suck out the contents.

Application

  • Turn and shake the bottle gently before use
  • Push the centre of the cap to open the dosage hole
  • Sprinkle material on leaves or pour into Diboxes
  • Make sure the material remains on the introduction site for at least a few hours after introduction
  • Can also be applied with (Mini)-Air(o)bug

Dosage

The dosage of Swirski-Mite depends on climate, crop and pest density and should always be adjusted to the particular situation. Start introduction as soon as the first pest mites are detected in the crop. Introduction rates typically range from 25-300 per m2/release. Releases should be repeated if necessary. Consult a Koppert advisor or a recognized distributor of Koppert products for advice on the best strategy for your situation.
