Slow Release Predator Mite Sachets – Protect Plants for 4 Weeks Naturally

Slow Release Predator Mite Sachets for Natural Biological Pest Control

Which predatory mites are available in sachets?

  • Californicus- control of spider mites and other pest mites
  • Cucumeris-  control of thrips
  • Montdorensis- control of thrips and whitefly
  • Each slow-release sachet is a predatory mite breeding system complete with prey mites for the predators to eat and food to sustain the population of prey mites.
  • These sachets are designed to be hung in crops where they allow for continuous release of predatory mites over a period of 3-6 weeks. This innovative release technology reduces the need for multiple applications and helps achieve even distribution and sustained activity of predatory mites.

Premium Slow Release Predator Mite Sachets

Natural protection that keeps working—even when you’re not.

Every grower knows the frustration.

You spray today, only to discover new pests a week later.

Repeated chemical applications cost time, money, and often eliminate the beneficial insects that naturally keep pests under control.

EcoBiom Slow Release Predator Mite Sachets offer a smarter solution.

Each sachet contains live beneficial predatory mites together with their food source. Instead of releasing thousands of predators all at once, the sachet continuously releases fresh predators over several weeks, providing ongoing biological protection exactly when your crop needs it.

The result is healthier plants, fewer pest outbreaks, reduced pesticide applications, and a more balanced growing environment.

Whether you’re growing strawberries, cucumbers, capsicums, tomatoes, ornamentals, berries, herbs, nursery plants or greenhouse crops, slow-release sachets make biological control simple and reliable.

Instead of fighting pests repeatedly, let nature work every day.


Key Benefits

✅ Continuous release for up to 4 weeks

✅ Reduces chemical pesticide applications

✅ Supports Integrated Pest Management (IPM)

✅ Safe for beneficial insects and pollinators

✅ Easy to hang directly onto plants

✅ Labour-saving compared with repeated releases

✅ Improves long-term biological balance

✅ Suitable for greenhouse and protected cropping

✅ Helps prevent early pest population explosions

✅ Environmentally sustainable pest management


How It Works

Each breathable sachet contains:

  • Beneficial predatory mites
  • A food source
  • A breeding medium

Inside the sachet, predator mites reproduce naturally.

New predators continuously exit through tiny openings over several weeks and disperse throughout the crop, searching for pest mites, thrips larvae and other target pests depending on the predator species used.

Unlike single releases, slow-release sachets continually replenish predator populations, maintaining protection for much longer.


What It Is

A ready-to-use biological control sachet containing live beneficial predatory mites that are gradually released into crops.


Why Use It?

Instead of relying solely on pesticides, slow-release sachets establish beneficial insects that naturally suppress pest populations before outbreaks occur.

Benefits include:

  • Reduced spray frequency
  • Better resistance management
  • Safer crops
  • Improved beneficial insect populations
  • Sustainable crop protection

Who It’s For

Ideal for:

  • Commercial growers
  • Greenhouse producers
  • Nursery operators
  • Berry growers
  • Vegetable growers
  • Herb producers
  • Flower growers
  • Home gardeners
  • Organic growers
  • IPM programs

How to Use

  1. Inspect crop for early pest activity.
  2. Select the correct predator species for your target pest.
  3. Hang one sachet on the shaded side of the plant.
  4. Keep sachets dry and protected from overhead irrigation where possible.
  5. Replace sachets every 4 weeks or according to pest pressure.
  6. Avoid applying incompatible pesticides during biological control programs.

Scientific Trial Data / Field Results

Research and commercial greenhouse programs worldwide have demonstrated that slow-release predator sachets:

  • Maintain beneficial predator populations for several weeks.
  • Reduce pest outbreaks when introduced preventatively.
  • Lower dependence on repeated pesticide applications.
  • Improve long-term Integrated Pest Management performance.
  • Increase biological control success in greenhouse vegetables and ornamentals.

Field performance depends on crop type, climate, pest pressure, predator species and compatible IPM practices.
