Overrun by Aphids? You Don’t Have Time to ID 4,000 Species.

This mix handles it for you.

Instead of gambling on one parasitoid or trying to identify aphids under a loupe, this three-wasp combo covers a wide range of species and sizes—from melon aphids to potato aphids to rose aphids. Whether you're growing indoors or out, this is your aphid treatment plan in a bottle.

Aphid Parasitoid Wasp Mix

Biological Control for Green Peach, Foxglove, Melon, Potato, and Other Common Aphids

This curated blend includes:

  • Aphidius colemani – Targets smaller aphids like green peach, melon, and cotton aphids

  • Aphidius ervi – Handles larger species like foxglove, potato, and tobacco aphids

  • Aphelinus abdominalis – The long-term generalist; slower to establish but longer lived and persistent

Together, they offer early knockdown and longer-term suppression—without needing to know which aphid species you're dealing with.

How They Work (And Why It’s Effective)

These are parasitoids, not predators. They don’t eat aphids outright—they inject eggs into them.

Stage Activity
Days 0–2 Adults locate and sting aphids
Days 2–5 Eggs hatch and larvae feed internally
Day 5+ Aphids swell and turn tan or black (mummification)
Day 7–10 New wasps emerge from mummies and restart the cycle


You’ll see aphid mummies before live aphids disappear. That’s how parasitoids work: quiet, cumulative, and lethal.

What It Treats

Aphid Type Example Hosts
Green peach aphids Peppers, ornamentals, leafy greens
Melon aphids Monstera, cucurbits, citrus
Cotton aphids Ornamentals, vegetables, cannabis
Foxglove aphids Houseplants, bedding plants
Potato aphids Tomatoes, peppers, solanaceous crops
Rose aphids Roses, viburnums, perennial ornamentals
Unknown aphid infestations Mixed setups, greenhouses, display cabinets

When to Use

  • You see aphids forming colonies on stems or undersides of leaves

  • You’re dealing with multiple aphid species

  • You’ve used ladybugs or lacewings but the aphids returned

  • You want control that works indoors, outdoors, or in protected environments

  • You want biological control without sprays

How to Apply

Step Instruction
Release Rate 1–5 mummies per 10 sq. ft., weekly for 2–3 weeks
Timing Best used at the first sign of aphids
Application Gently shake the bottle near infested plants, or use a soft brush to distribute
Placement Even distribution near pest zones—do not dump in one spot
Ideal Conditions 65–77°F for optimal function (but range is 50–86°F)


Storage:

  • Adults: Use immediately

  • Pupae: Store up to 48 hours at 39–46°F if needed

Where This Mix Performs Best

  • Indoor setups: greenhouses, grow tents, cabinets, living walls

  • Outdoor gardens: raised beds, fruit trees, ornamentals

  • Mixed aphid infestations: when ID is uncertain or multiple species are present

  • High-value crops: where pesticide use is restricted or undesirable

How You’ll Know It’s Working

  • You start seeing aphid mummies—bloated, tan or black husks on the plant

  • Aphid populations stop increasing, even if some are still visible

  • You spot tiny wasps hovering near infested zones

  • New plant growth appears with less distortion or sticky residue

Results take 5–10 days to show visibly, but the suppression keeps compounding over time.

Safe for Everything But the Aphids

  • No sprays, no residue, no chemical drift

  • Zero re-entry interval

  • Won’t harm pollinators, predatory mites, pets, or people

  • Fully IPM-compatible and organically approved

  • Works across both edible and ornamental plants
