How does Miglyphus work
Adult female parasitic wasps of Diglyphus isaea kill leaf-miner larvae in the mine and lay their eggs on them. The eggs develop into parasitic wasps inside the mine (but outside the leaf miner), using the dead larvae as food.
Application Miglyphus
-
Release parasitic wasps between leaves in the morning or in the evening.
-
Introduce the product at the first sign of pest presence.
-
Miglyphus is recommended when leaf miner infection increases
Best working conditions Miglyphus
Diglyphus becomes effective at temperatures of 15°C and higher.
