Effective, chemical-free protection against thrips – ideal for greenhouses, grow tents, and indoor plants.
Say goodbye to thrip damage with our Amblyseius cucumeris Sachets – a powerful and natural way to prevent thrip infestations before they start. These slow-release sachets contain breeding colonies of Amblyseius cucumeris predatory mites, which actively target and consume the larvae of thrip species, especially the destructive Western Flower Thrip (Frankliniella occidentalis).
Thrips are one of the most common and damaging pests in indoor plant setups and greenhouses. They feed by piercing plant tissue, leaving behind silvery streaks, distorted growth, and black specks. Once established, they are hard to reach with sprays—but Amblyseius cucumeris mites are small enough to find them and stop their lifecycle in its tracks.
These natural predators:
Target thrip eggs and larvae
Break the pest lifecycle before adults form
Survive on flower pollen when pests aren’t present
Provide continuous protection for up to 4 weeks
Are safe for people, pets, and pollinators
Hang 1–2 sachets per plant (based on 1m height)
Replace every 3–4 weeks for consistent prevention
Ideal temperature: 15–25°C | Ideal humidity: 70%+
Use immediately upon arrival – not suitable for storage
Avoid recent use of chemical sprays or insecticides
Each sachet features a pre-cut release hole and hook for easy application directly onto your plants. The mites will emerge gradually, moving across leaves and flowers in search of prey.
Use preventatively throughout the year indoors
Outdoors: Introduce from mid-May or earlier in warm climates
Perfect for propagation, early growth, and mature plants
Apply before thrips appear or at the first sign of damage
Our Amblyseius cucumeris sachets offer a natural thrip control system that protects your plants without disrupting the environment. No harsh chemicals, no complicated setup—just reliable, science-backed biological pest control.
