If you've got lots of different species of spider mites wreaking havoc in your greenhouse, garden, or nursery, then you need more ammunition in your arsenal.This blend of predatory mites gives you 3-4 to broaden control across mites while adding greenhouse coverage for thrips and whiteflies. The result is more consistent performance across temperature and humidity swings and fewer gaps across pest life stages.
It's a great control option for greenhouses, high tunnels, and nurseries with high mite pressure throughout the year.
MiteMix Predators Include:
- Neoseiulus californicus: Delivers steady control with slower consumption and extended survival without food, staying active when prey is scarce.
- Amblyseius swirskii: Consumes large amounts of prey daily and thrives in cooler conditions for rapid suppression.
- Neoseiulus cucumeris: Provides steady suppression despite slower consumption and remains established by surviving on pollen.
- Amblyseius andersoni: (only CSCA) Well-suited for pre-emergent control to stop pests before they establish.

Do not expose to direct sunlight at any time. Use within 18 hours of receipt. Do not store. Make sure the crop and floor are dry when applying.
- Open each container in the crop when ready to use.
- Immediately before applying, gently rotate the container to distribute mites evenly throughout the carrier material
- Shake small quantities of predatory mites onto crop foliage, focusing where pest pressure is heaviest.
- Continue rotating during application, keeping material mixed, as you disperse the predators.
Viability Note: If you plan to check for viability, please do so upon receipt and prior to releasing the beneficial insects. Many predators and parasites are small and can be difficult to spot once released. If you believe there are issues with viability, please contact us at 1-800-827-2847 or customercare@arbico.com.
