Mealybug Destroyer - Free Shipping

The Mealybug Destroyer (Cryptolaemus montrouzieri) is used against all species of mealybugs and will feed on aphids and soft scale when mealybugs are scarce. Adult and larval stages are predatory. Most active at 70º F, or higher, Mealybug Destroyers should be released at 0.5 per sq. ft. or 2-5 per plant. Often after release, pest problems appears to get worse before they improve. This is because Cryptolaemus larvae are similar in appearance to the pest. Used by the citrus industry in California, this predator is credited with the complete control of the citrus mealybug.
