Description
APHIDIUSforce Mix is a combination of four parasitoid wasp species that will attack many common pest aphids: Aphidius colemani, Aphidius ervi, Aphidius matricariae, Aphelinus abdominalis.
Female wasps hunt for aphids by sensing infested plants’ odor and the aphid’s honeydew secretions. Upon discovering aphids, the female wasp will touch them with its antennae to make sure they are an appropriate species. The female wasp will use an ovipositor to insert an egg inside the aphid if they are. Once the egg hatches, the larva begins to eat the aphid from the inside, eventually resulting in death 7 to 10 days later.
Once the larva kills the aphid, it will spin a cocoon around itself, and the aphid will turn into a bronze-colored mummy. The wasp will pupate for 7 to 10 days before emerging as an adult. The adult wasp chews a round exit hole out of the back of the aphid. Each female wasp can lay up to 300 eggs, most of them during the first four days of adulthood.
