How It Works
>> Feeds on mites in the family Tetranychidae, including the common two-spotted mite, Tetranychus urticae, and the carmine mite, Tetranychus cinnabarinus.
>> Total development time at 21°C / 69.8°F is nearly 10 days, while at 30°C / 86°F development time is reduced to five days. These temperatures align with the temperatures at which their principal prey, the two-spotted spider mite, develops.
