When to use Aphipar-M?

Use Aphipar-M for biological pest control of primarily tobacco aphid (Myzus persicae nicotianae) and peach potato aphid (Myzus persicae). Has a side effect on cotton aphids.

How does Aphipar-M work?

Adult female parasitic wasps lay their eggs parasitically in the aphids, causing them to swell and harden into leathery, grey/brown mummies. The first adult parasitic wasps emerge through a round hole at the rear of the mummies approximately 10-14 days after introduction.

Application Aphipar-M

- Spread the material on rock wool slabs or in application boxes (Dibox)
- Make sure the material remains dry and is not moved from its introduction site for at least a few days
- Use the peel-off label to mark where the product has been introduced
