AMBLYforce™ A Beneficial Amblyseius andersoni Predatory Mites for Biological Pest Control AMBLYforce™ A contains live Amblyseius andersoni predatory mites — a preventative biological control for spider mites, broad mites, russet mites, thrips larvae, and other soft-bodied arthropod pests commonly found in greenhouses, indoor grows, nurseries, gardens, and field production. These predatory mites actively search plant surfaces for prey, feeding on eggs, juveniles, and adult pest mites before populations become established. Why Growers Use AMBLYforce™ A Targets spider mites, broad mites, russet mites, and thrips larvae Excellent preventative biological control for ongoing IPM programs Performs well across a broad range of environmental conditions Compatible with greenhouse, indoor, nursery, garden, and field production Suitable for hemp/cannabis, ornamentals, soft fruits, and tree nurseries Helps reduce reliance on chemical miticides and sprays Available in shaker tubes and slow-release sachets Target Pests Two-Spotted Spider Mite (Tetranychus urticae) Carmine Mite (T. cinnabarinus) Lewis Mite (Eotetranychus lewisi) Banks Grass Mite (Oligonychius pratensis) Broad Mite (Polyphagotarsonemus latus) Russet/Gall/Rust Mites (Eriophyidae) European/Citrus Red Mites (Panonychus spp.) Thrips larvae How It Works All mobile stages of Amblyseius andersoni are predatory and feed on eggs, juveniles, and adult spider mites. These mites can also survive on young thrips larvae, flower pollen, sugary pest excretions, and fungi, helping populations persist even when pest pressure is low. AMBLYforce™ A is intended primarily as a preventative treatment and should ideally be introduced before pest populations become established. Instructions for Use Mini Sachets with Hooks Hang sachets from branches, plant wires, or trellises. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or saturated areas that may cause moisture wicking. Sachets provide slow, continuous release of predatory mites for approximately 4–5 weeks. Shaker Tube Shake small quantities directly onto the crop near flowers or pest pressure areas. Product can also be used with URBs (Universal Release Boxes) for more strategic releases throughout the canopy. Monitoring Check new plant growth regularly for signs of feeding damage or webbing. Predatory mites are fast-moving and often difficult to observe directly. The most effective monitoring method is observing reduced pest pressure after releases. Advisories Apply when pest pressure is low for best preventative control Avoid exposing sachets to prolonged direct sunlight Avoid incompatible pesticide applications before or after release Maintain suitable environmental conditions whenever possible Storage & Handling This product contains living beneficial organisms and must be handled properly.
