  • Will Trichogramma Wasps kill gypsy moths?

    Hello –

    Will your trichogramma wasps kill gypsy moth caterpillars? We have a terrible problem with them back east.

    Hello –

    There is conflicting information online about this subject, so I went straight to the source and asked the insectary. Their response…

    “Trichogramma wasps will NOT work on gypsy moth eggs.”

    Hope this helps!
