Dutchy's (2,500) - Biological Control of Red Mites with Predatory Mites<!--en-->Attention: As these are live animals, purchase on account or by direct debit is unfortunately not possible. This product is excluded from exchange!<!--en-->Effective Predatory Mite Control for Terrariums and Chicken Coops: Dutchy's (2,500)<!--en-->Hypoaspis miles (predatory mites) are soil-dwelling predators with a broad prey spectrum, including bird and blood mites. Therefore, they are ideally suited for use in terrariums, aviaries, chicken coops, and other areas where biological control without the use of insecticides is desired.<!--en-->The development from egg to sexually mature beneficial insect takes approximately 12 days at a temperature of 25°C. The eggs and nymphs are white, while adult predatory mites are brown and up to 1 mm in size. A predatory mite can consume up to 5 blood mites per day and lays up to 3 eggs daily.<!--en-->Biological control with Mite Boosters can shift the natural balance in favor of the predatory mites and to the detriment of the blood mites. Visible success can be observed after just a few days. In many cases, the blood mites are completely eradicated within a few weeks. In the case of a high initial infestation, we recommend a follow-up treatment with additional Mite Boosters after approximately 6 weeks.<!--en-->The predatory mite can survive for several weeks without food, making preventive use of these predatory mites possible. In terrariums, the control of snake mites, spider mites (tarantulas are very often infested), or other mites with predatory mites has also proven successful. Use Dutchy's (2,500) - content approx. 2,500 predatory mites for effective and biological pest control.

Important Instructions for Application
1. Hold the bottle horizontally and rotate it slowly a few times around its own axis. This will evenly distribute the predatory mites in the material.
2. Use the table below to calculate how many piles should be applied in the cage or nest. Place some material from the bottle into the cap. A full cap is sufficient for one application point. Carefully make a small pile with this amount at the selected location.
3. Leave this pile undisturbed for at least 2 weeks. Every day, various predatory mites will migrate from the pile into the nest or cage.
4. Use all the material. It is not possible to store it for a longer period, as the predatory mites would otherwise eat each other in the bottle.
5. After application, place the empty bottle in the cage or nest for at least one more day. If there are still predatory mites inside, they can crawl out.
