Two-spotted spider mite (TSSM).
How it works
Adults and young stages feed on all two-spotted spider mite life stages. Active at temperatures above 57°F/14°C and can be used outdoors. At temperatures over 86°F/30°C, spider mite growth rate may exceed that of Phytoseiulus. Less active at low light levels but does not go into diapause.
