Help With Mites: Stethorus Discounted
We’ve been getting so many calls for spider mite control it’s pretty obvious two-spotted mites are the scourge of 2008, or so it seems. In response to this, we decided to offer the mite-predatory beetle Stethorus punctillum at a discount for a couple of weeks. We chose to discount this species to encourage users to give them a try. So far they have been well received, but even more feedback would be great.

Last Minute Praying Mantis Sale
We offer praying mantises, Tenodera aridifolia sinensis, as egg cases, and in the best interest of these insects, it’s best they go into the garden in June. We like to sell out around this time. After June they’ll still hatch, but numbers will go down and the poor mantids won’t be able to reach reproductive maturity in some parts of the country. That’s why we’re putting them on sale again. They need a home.
