Trichogramma platneri is a moth egg parasite native to the western parts of the United States. It is commonly used in orchards, in vineyards and on ornamentals for preventative control of various caterpillars and borers. When timed appropriately, Trichogramma releases can significantly reduce moth/caterpillar populations and limit pesticide use.

Biology & Life Cycle: Trichogramma wasps lay their eggs inside the pest eggs, stopping development. The larvae feed on the egg and emerge as adults. This development takes 10 days to develop within the pest moth egg, which turns brown or black as the larvae pupate. The adult wasps live anywhere from 7 to 14 days, depending on temperature and humidity. Female Trichogramma will parasitize up to 300 pest moth eggs in a lifetime. Eggs on cards usually hatch within 2-5 days.

Preferred Food: Trichogramma parasitize the eggs of more than 200 pests, including borers, webworms, loopers, leafworms, fruitworms, cutworms, bollworms, and armyworms (except beet armyworms).

Choose the correct variety for your region or crop type:

  • T. minutum - East of the Rockies.
  • T. platneri - West of the Rockies
  • T. pretiosum - General Parasitoid
  • T. brassicae - Low Lying Crops
NOTE: Emergence holes are evident under significant magnification after Trichogramma have hatched.

Timing the release is important – if you release too early there aren't enough pest eggs for the wasps to parasitize. Too late means that the pest eggs have hatched and you have a new problem - caterpillar pests. For best results, releases should be made before adult moths or caterpillars are spotted. If that is not possible, release as soon as possible once temperatures allow.

Release Rate:

  • 1 tab for 300 sq. ft. or 1 tab per tree in an orchard. Weekly releases are recommended for a minimum of three weeks.
  • ½ to 2 cards weekly per acre for 2 – 6 weeks.

Release immediately upon receipt. Release Trichogramma at first flight of moths and every 7-10 days thereafter until infestation subsides. It is best to release in the early morning or evening by hanging the cards out of direct sunlight, below plant tops or in trees where moths have been seen. Cards or tabs can be put on stakes or hung from the edge of a pot. Do not touch the eggs.

Using traps to monitor for adults and visual inspection of foliage to monitor for moth eggs will help determine the best time to release Trichogramma.


Storage: Release adult wasps immediately after emergence.

Conditions: Place in a warm location (80-90°F), out of direct sunlight. Hang individual cards where moths are seen.

Environments: Outdoors, Crops, Orchards & Vineyards, Nursery, Greenhouse, Grow Room, Hydroponics, Aquaponics, Pond & Environment, Container Plants

Tiny warriors for moths
Oct 21, 2020  |  By Savanah Johnson
We are battling pantry moths and these guys are helping significantly ! we have noticed a huge decrease in population. planning on purchasing more tabs periodically throughout the year for good measure. These guys are a must for fighting pantry moths.


Trichogramma parasites work
Oct 6, 2020  |  By Doug E.
Trichogramma eggs have to be hatched indoors if you have ants on or in your garden. Ants will decimate every egg on the card if they are present. Hatch then release and they work well. They take some time though, so get them early.
Owner Response: Great advice Doug!

I bought these for use on bud worms. Seems to have worked exceptionally well. Will integrate use yearly outdoors.


Fast delivery, well packaged

My friend recommended Arbico Organics for help with reducing cabbage loopers I had a difficult time with them the previous season. Their weren't enough praying mantises that year. He suggested Trichogamma wasps. They helped him. The website is easy to navigate and purchase the products. I'm very pleased with the product and delivery time.


The saga of Pantry Moths
Mar 17, 2019  |  By Sue
I unpleasantly found pantry moths in a drawer in my kitchen. If you want to get rid of the problem, every part of the life cycle must be addressed. Killing moth eggs at the source (the egg) is key. Traps, diatomaceous earth and sprays are good but you NEED these wasps to get rid of the eggs. Keep putting the tabs out until you don't see the moths for a month. We received the product quickly and put the extras in the fridge until we were ready to use. I recommend this product.
