Application
- BioLacewing is shipped in insulated, chilled boxes. Packaging must be kept intact until placed in the field.
- Keep in a cool location 10-14°C until release; do not put bottles in a refrigerator.
- The product should be released within 24 hours of receipt, during the early morning or late afternoon, while temperatures are mild.
- Control ants if present before releasing BioLacewing. Ants will hamper with and delay the control process as they will actively defend the pests from their natural enemies.
- Do not expose the bottles to direct sunlight.
Egg card application
- Identify the correct area inside the tree or crop in as little sunlight as possible.
- Hung the egg cards on twigs, near pest pressure areas inside the canopy (protected from sun and the elements).
Shaker bottle application
- Open the shaker bottle gently, releasing the lacewing which will fly out on their own to find prey.
Before combining BioLacewing with any chemical pesticide in the crop, please consult your BioBee technical representative.
