Main uses
Amblyline is commonly used for the control of: Thrips (Western Flower Thrips, Chili Thrips), Broad mite & Cyclamen mite.
How it works
The formulation is designed to ensure a consistent release of predatory Amblyseius cucumeris mites onto the crop every day. At 24°C (75°F), the total development time of A. cucumeris is 6–9 days, which aligns well with the lifecycle of Western Flower Thrips. The optimal temperature range for these mites is 66–80°F (19–27°C) with relative humidity between 65% and 75%. The mites feed on the first larval stage (L1) of thrips and do not attack larger larvae or adult thrips.
