The predatory bug Orius is a flattened insect about 3 mm in size with is one typical long snout. This mobile wolverine feeds on all stages of thrips. If no thrips occurs, they also feed on other insects, such as whiteflies, aphids and spider mites. At high densities of prey they kill more than they really need as food. These predatory bugs are supplied in packs, good for a control of 50 m2, but most effective at max 20m2.
Thrips are winged insects of less than a millimeter in size. The larvae are mobile and start eating immediately after hatching. They feed on leaf tissue at the underside of the leaf. By sucking the living plant cells silver gray spots appear on the leaves, on which black spots can be seen (excrement). At high density damage to the flowers also occurs. Thrips populations can develop very quickly. A thrip can produce about 100 offspring. At 30 degrees it takes thrips 12 days to develop from egg to adult.
We recommend to use preventive natural predatorat at the start of each cultivation.
