Rove Beetles are a soil-dwelling general predator that feeds on the larvae of fungus gnats, shore fly, moth fly and pupae of thrips and springtails. There is evidence that Rove Beetles will also provide some control for root aphids.
Benefits of Rove Beetles:
- Effective between 55°-90° F. Provide protection for more pests at lower temperatures than S. scimitus.
- Prefer humidity between 50-80%. Ideal for greenhouses and controlled environments.
- Known for aggressive feeding and reproduction rates. Both larvae and adults are predatory.
- Highly mobile in the soil and adults can fly from plant to plant.
