Lacewing helpers - By Jean Halsey on Jun 21, 2011
Something had been eating my veggie leaves. After putting out the lacewings, which was a very simple process, the holes in the leaves stopped. I have been using organics for years and have always been satisfied with the products.

I get these every 2 weeks in summer, keep the white flies at bay. In winter harder as they need 70 deg to hatch (greenhouse is 50 deg), so I hatch in mechanical room. Can't see them but they seem to get rid of the bugs fast!!

beneficial insects - By jo carr on Mar 7, 2012
I love these beautiful little guys, as I know they eliminate the aphids and lot's of other sucking bad guys in my gardens every year. No more poisons in my yard and food. Thanks To The Great Information on Arbico's website. Thank You!

Hatched - By Canonsburg3 on Jun 14, 2011
I sprinkled the eggs into the garden as directed but at first I had no way of knowing if they would hatch. A couple of weeks later, on two separate occasions, green lacewings hitched rides on us as we came out of the garden, so we know they hatched! We carefully placed the tiny guys back where they belong. I used these along with the mantids, and have very few "bad" bugs in the garden. Very satisfied.

It has been just four weeks from the time I released the eggs and 90% of the aphids on my citrus trees are gone.
