Special Blend Predatory Mite Mix Treatment Bottles

Seeing Webbing, Twisted Leaves, or Bronzing?

If your Alocasia’s dropping leaves, your Philodendron’s new growth looks warped, or you’ve noticed mysterious webbing in the corners of your setup—there’s a good chance you’re dealing with mites. And if you've already wiped down leaves or tried neem to no effect, you're past prevention. It's time for a treatment that works.

Special Blend Predatory Mite Bottles (Adults Only)

For active infestations of spider mites, broad mites, russet mites, rust mites, and thrips larvae.

This is a high-intensity, broad-spectrum solution made for growers who are already seeing pest damage. It contains four species of live adult predatory mites that get to work immediately—no eggs, no lag, no chemical foggers.

What This Treats

Note: This blend controls thrips larvae, not adults. If you're seeing adult thrips flying or crawling, pair with Orius insidiosus for full coverage.

Why Bottles?

• No downtime — contains only fast-moving adults, ready to hunt

• Outbreak-ready — built for visible pest pressure

• Direct application — pour onto infested plants or hot spots

• Safe indoors — no residue, no smell, no sprays

• Broad spectrum — works across multiple mite types, not just one

Who’s in the Bottle?

This isn’t some random mite mix. It’s a strategic four-species team designed to work across humidity swings, plant types, and pest stages:

• Phytoseiulus persimilis – spider mite assassin; fast reproduction, high appetite

• Amblyseius swirskii – targets broad mites and thrips larvae; thrives in warmth

• A. cucumeris – early-stage thrips and broad mite control

• A. andersoni – climate-tolerant generalist that holds steady in cooler or fluctuating rooms

They don’t just attack pests—they disrupt the whole reproduction cycle.

How Fast Does It Work?

You’ll usually see signs of suppression within 2–5 days. Here’s what’s happening in that window:

• Adults spread out and begin feeding

• Females lay eggs near pest clusters

• Eggs hatch in 2–3 days

• New predators begin hunting within the week

• Adults keep feeding and reproducing for up to 30 days

This is why it works even after release. It’s not one and done—it’s rolling control.

How Much Do You Need?

Go higher if you're unsure. Too few mites = wasted effort. Too many = faster suppression.

How to Apply

• Use immediately on arrival

• Shake bottle gently to distribute mites

• Pour onto affected leaves, soil surface, or soft cotton in the canopy

• Avoid chemical sprays before/after release—they’ll kill the mites too

• Best deployed in the early morning or evening when temps are stable

• For dry homes (under 50% RH), mist lightly to support reproduction

Science Notes 

• These are Phytoseiid mites, known for short life cycles and high prey specificity

• At ~77°F and 60%+ humidity, P. persimilis completes its life cycle in ~5 days

• Adults may consume 5–20 spider mite eggs or juveniles per day

• Reproduction slows if RH drops below 60%, so boosting microclimate humidity helps

• Swirskii and andersoni remain active in slightly cooler or more variable conditions

Shipping & Storage

• Ships overnight with Live Arrival Guarantee

• Use as soon as possible

• If needed, store at 42–48°F for up to 48 hours. Do not freeze.
