Hypoaspis Life Cycle

Hypoaspis can live for several weeks without the presence of food, and therfore can be used as preventatively. Adults will remain active for 4 or 5 months with a ready food supply.

• Hypoaspis requires a minimum temperature of 10ºC (50ºF).
• Hypoapis prefers moist conditions and temperatures between 16ºC and 30ºC.
• Hypoaspis should be used on the day of receipt.

Hypoaspis predators are supplied mixed with peat and vermiculite and sent out in an easy to use sprinkler pack, they are simply sprinkled on to effected plants, (approx. 1 teaspoon full per pot).
