Want to Prevent a Spider Mite Outbreak? Start Here.
Spider mites don’t announce themselves. By the time you see webbing or speckled leaves, they’ve already done the damage.
Phytoseiulus persimilis sachets help stop the outbreak before it starts.
Phytoseiulus persimilis Sachets
Targeted Prevention for Spider Mites (Tetranychus spp.)
These slow-release sachets contain all life stages of P. persimilis, a specialist predator that only feeds on spider mites—no detours, no distractions.
Each sachet delivers a controlled release of eggs, juveniles, and adults over 2–4 weeks, building a rolling presence of predators right where you need them.
If your environment is warm and humid—and your pest risk is seasonal or recurring—this is how you stay ahead of spider mites.
Use These to Prevent:
| Pest | Targeted Species |
|---|---|
| Two-Spotted Spider Mites (Tetranychus urticae) | Primary target |
| Carmine Red Mites | Effective at all life stages |
| Pacific Spider Mites | Suppression before webbing |
| Other web-spinning Tetranychus species | As long as they spin webs, these mites are on the menu |
P. persimilis doesn’t go after anything else—it’s spider mites or nothing.
When to Choose P. persimilis Sachets
| Use When... | Don't Use When... |
|---|---|
| You’re dealing only with spider mites | You also have thrips, broad mites, or russet mites |
| Your environment stays warm + humid (68–90°F, 60–90% RH) | You’re growing in cool, dry, or fluctuating conditions |
| You’re rotating between bottles and sachets | You need generalist coverage—use Swirskii or Andersoni instead |
These sachets are for growers who know spider mites are the main threat—and want the right predator on standby before they show up.
Why Use Sachets?
| Feature | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Gradual release | Sustained control over 2–4 weeks |
| No application mess | No sprinkling, no cleanup |
| Multi-stage coverage | Contains eggs, juveniles, and adults |
| Precision targeting | Only attacks spider mites—won’t waste energy on other prey |
| "Set it and forget it" ease | Hang and let them deploy naturally |
Think of this as built-in insurance for high-value plants in spider mite–prone zones.
