Best working conditions:
The predatory mite is not susceptible to diapause and therefore can also be introduced during the winter time.
It is tolerant to high temperatures; a swirskii population starts to develop when the temperatures during the day regularly exceed 20-22 °C.
Storage:
– Temperature: 10-15°C/50-60°F
– In the dark
– Provide ventilation to prevent CO2 accumulation
