Stratioforce is used for the control of the following pests:
- Thrips
- Fungus Gnats
Stratioforce feeding behaviours:
Predatory mites pierce their prey and suck out the contents. Stratiolaelaps scimitus is a generalist predator. In addition to soil-dwelling thrips stages, it also feeds on fly larvae, mites, springtails, nematodes and other small soil-dwelling organisms. The larvae do not feed. Nymphs and adults prey mainly in the upper 1-2 cm of the soil. Adult females consume up to 4.5 thrips pupae per day.
Best conditions for use of Stratioforce:
For optimal results the soil has to be moist, rich in organic matter and have a loose structure. The minimum temperature for successful use of Stratiolaelaps scimitus is 15°C/59°F.
NOTE: Stratioforce is not available for shipment.
