Phone orders are best practice when making a beneficial insect order. If you choose to make your order over the internet, you are subject to additional charges on your card and/or possible refunds due to non-available insects.

Use Fungus Gnat Predators (Hypoaspis species) for control of Fungus Gnats and most other small, soil-inhabiting insects, Mites, and Springtails. Provides up to 30% control of Western Flower Thrips, as well. Eggs hatch in about 2-3 days, and their life cycle is completed in about 11 days at 68 F. Temperature isn't critical, but they're inactive below 57 F. They thrive under almost any conditions except flooding or drought.
Application: Sprinkle Fungus Gnat Predators throughout the growing area onto soil surfaces, capillary mats, hydroponic media, etc. Be sure to treat all wet, exposed areas of soil and greenhouse floors. For bedding plants, it's probably not essential to treat every single flat, but do apply Predators early enough to allow time for them to spread to other plants. If Gnat populations are low, 5,000 Predators treat 200 square feet of growing surface. Larger pest populations will require larger releases, with one release usually being enough per growing season.
