BioGalendromus, also known as the western predatory mite, stands out for its ability to thrive and control spider mites in dryer and warmer conditions. While the eggs and larvae are oval to pear-shaped and almost transparent, the adults are white and pear-shaped until they feed, at which time they take on the prey’s coloration (normally yellow to pale brown).
Their target pests are spider mites (Tetranychidae), including the two-spotted (Tetranychus urticae), Willamette (Eotetranychus willamettei), Pacific (Tetranychus pacificus), European red (Panonychus ulmi), citrus red (Panonychus citri), McDaniel (Tetranychus mcdanieli), spruce (Oligonychus ununguis), persea mite, (Oligonychus perseae) and russet mites (Eriophyidae).
BioGalendromus is used in fruit trees, nut tree orchards, vineyards, hops, hemp, medicinal cannabis, avocado, ornamentals as well as in greenhouse vegetables and interiorscapes.
