Aphid Control That Starts the Moment They Land
Aphidoletes aphidimyza nymphs don’t need time to warm up—they arrive hungry and
ready to clear out aphids. These bright orange, soft-bodied predators are
shipped in their active feeding stage, meaning they start working the moment
they hit your crop.
Each nymph can take out up to 65 aphids per day, using a paralyzing toxin to
immobilize prey before feeding. No mess. No damage to your plants. Just fast,
focused control of over 60 aphid species, from rose and melon aphids to black
bean and lettuce aphids.
TARGETS:
* Black bean aphids
* Lettuce aphids
* Melon aphids
* Rose aphids
* Potato aphids
* Cherry aphids
* Honeysuckle aphids
* 60+ other small- to mid-sized aphid species
WHY USE NYMPHS IN BOTTLES?
* Immediate action. These are not eggs or pupae—they’re active predators
* No lag time. No waiting for emergence, hatching, or soil pupation
* Clean release. Apply directly to infested areas
* Best for greenhouses, gardens, and high-pressure aphid zones
HOW THEY WORK
* Nymphs begin hunting as soon as released
* Each nymph feeds for 7–10 days, consuming dozens of aphids per day
* After feeding, they drop to the soil to pupate
* Adults (small, mosquito-like midges) emerge in 10–14 days, restarting the
cycle
* Visible suppression usually starts within 3–5 days
ENVIRONMENTAL SWEET SPOT
* Temps: 50–88°F
* Humidity: Moderate to high
* Best used in shaded or protected zones with soil or substrate for pupation
HOW MUCH TO USE
* Standard use: 1 nymph per 3 sq. ft.
* High pressure: 1,000–4,000 nymphs per acre
* Repeat weekly for 2–3 weeks depending on pressure
PRO TIPS FOR SUCCESS
* Release early and directly onto infested plants
* Avoid pesticides—residues will kill your predators
* Provide pupation space (bare soil or substrate) so the next generation can
emerge
* Pair with Aphidius colemani for full aphid lifecycle coverage (parasitoid +
predator)
SHIPPING & STORAGE
* Ships overnight with live delivery guarantee
* Use immediately
* If absolutely necessary, store at 50–60°F and release within 24 hours
