Beneficial Insects

Lady Bug Lures attracts beneficial insects, lure acts like a magnet that draws lady bugs, lacewings and other helpful insects to gardens to devour pests such as aphids, plant lice, and scale insects.

Ladybugs prefer to eat aphids and will devour up to 50 a day, but they will also attack scale, mealy bugs, boil worm, leaf hopper, and corn ear worm. They dine only on insects and do not harm vegetation in any way.

These ferocious looking creatures eat a wide variety of insects: beetles, caterpillars, grubs, aphids, grass-hoppers, almost anything that moves. But they are so gentle to humans and so much fun that many people buy them for pets.

Beneficial predatory mites are adult mites that seek out and kill pest mites, particularly the common spider mite and two spotted mites. The pest mites typically feed on the underside of leaves of indoor plants and trees.

Trichogramma are tiny parasites that lay their eggs inside caterpillar and moth eggs. The Trichogramma eggs hatch, feed on the pest eggs which kills them and then emerge as adults to continue the cycle.
