Green Lacewings
Control Aphids Naturally
One of the most beneficial insects in the garden, green lacewings help control harmful plant pests like aphids, mealybugs, immature scales and white flies, thrips and spider mites. Lacewings are a natural way to control pests in flower beds, vegetable gardens and greenhouse. Just place their eggs in areas where problem pests are present. To control a moderate aphid population, place 10 of these Chrysoperla rufilabris lacewing eggs per plant or 1,000 eggs per 200 sq. ft. For best results, conduct three successive releases.
