Question 1

What Strains are in the Mix? How many of each? How big of an area does 2000 Cover?

Accepted Answer

There are 3 different ones in the mix. They can spread out over a mid size garden after about a week. I saw them on the opposite side if a garden that is 80 ft by 30 feet. They go where the food is so they will seek out mites until they eat them all wherever they are in your garden. I will see if they come back this year like the spider mites do. I hope so but if not I will definitely order more. They really work wonders. It is like removing slugs from your garden. As soon as you do the plants can thrive without being weakened by parasites.

Question 2

Can i spray neem without killing them?

Accepted Answer

Neem will kill them ... you can use only one or the other

Question 3

I have received the predatory mites but without instructions. What is the gel in the blue bad and what do I do with it.

Accepted Answer

The blue bag is just an ice pack that is supposed to keep the mites kool until you release them.Release the mites immediately! They won't live long. Open the vials and let the mites go onto your plants leaves.When you open the vials, there should be live mites on the caps, and they should run out onto your fingers. Ifyou don't see any live mites, then they are dead.

Question 4

What happens to these mites when they die off? are they throughout the plant like spider mite may be?  Or do they just die and fall to the floor?

Accepted Answer

They are the same size as spider mites but run faster and so long as you provide an occasional misting they won't die off. They usually just migrate somewhere where there are still spider Mites. If they do happen to die they just fall to the ground as dust which you won't even notice. You'll just stop seeing little red mites zipping from spider Mite to spider mite sucking up to 400 mites dry per 2 days each.
