 Green Lacewing Eggs
Chrysoperla rufilabris, Chrysoperla sp.
One of the Best General Purpose Predators!
Green Lacewing Target Pests: aphids, mealybugs, spider mites, leafhopper nymphs, moth eggs, scales, thrips, whitefly and more.
Method of shipment: Green Lacewing are shipped as eggs packed in bran.
Release rates: In gardens and greenhouses, release eggs at approximately 1,000 eggs/1,000 sq. ft. For farms release 20,000 to 40,000 per acre depending upon infestation. Once the larvae emerge, they will feed for 1-3 weeks before they become adults. The adults eat only honey, pollen, and nectar, which they need to reproduce.
Repeated releases every 7-10 days will be most effective if the infestation is severe. It is recommended to release Green lacewing at the beginning of each season with a two week interval to establish a preventative colony.
Sprinkle entire contents of vial onto infested foliage making sure that eggs are spread into as many areas as possible. It is acceptable if a few eggs fall on the ground. For optimal results, release insects onto plants that have been watered or apply after rain. Release all beneficial insects and insect eggs at sundown to allow for protection and to create sufficient time for them to settle into their new habitat.
Availability: year-round.

Weekly or Bi-weekly Ship Programs: For severe infestations it is recommended to make repeated releases. Minimum order of three shipments required. Order Green Lacewing Programs. |

Lacewings vs. Whitefly
- By H P on Jul 31, 2010
I had a bad whitefly infestation that affected raspberries, mint, and a number of other plants in my yard. Three potted Baptisia plants on my porch were so badly infected that the leaves dried out and dropped off the plants. After treating my yard and plants with Lacewing eggs, the whitefly are virtually undetectable and my Baptisia plants are sending up new shoots and leaves. If the Whiteflies come back, I will definitely get some more lacewings.

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.
Yum, yum---Aphids!
- By skegley on Mar 8, 2011
These guys are good eaters! I had a bit of difficulty with the release of the eggs in bran (hard to place the eggs where you want them without getting them wet and stuck together), but much better luck using the hanging packs (a coffee filter with only the egg in it that I placed in the thicket of aphid-infested plants). In both cases, the lacewing larvae made short work of the aphids that were plaguing my plants---the only remaining evidence was their dried-out shells.
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.

I received the green lacewing eggs very promptly and my pest problems were soon under control. Great product.
Success!!
- By Robert F. on Jul 7, 2011
The Green Lacewings worked wonders in eliminating millions of aphids on our crepe myrtle tree. We've been stumped on how to get rid of the aphids for two years. The chemicals never worked. In fact, they multiplied! We're so greatful we found you and followed your directions. It took 3+ weeks for the larvae to work, but they solved the problem and our tree is beautiful!

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