Product Description

What APHIDIUSforce™ CE Aphidius colemani and Aphidius ervi Targets

APHIDIUSforce™ CE is a powerful combination of two aphid-targeting parasitoid wasps: Aphidius colemani and Aphidius ervi. This dual-species blend broadens your ability to manage a broader range of aphid pests naturally and effectively. Designed for both preventative care and the early stages of infestation, it’s ideal for growers seeking aphid control with Aphidius & Aphelinus parasites as part of an integrated pest management program.

Environmental Conditions and Application Strategy

APHIDIUSforce™ CE can be used in greenhouses, indoor grows, and outdoor cultivation. It’s compatible with banker plant systems and can be used alongside other beneficial insects like Chrysoperla and Aphidoletes during outbreak situations. Because these wasps are not impacted by short day length and perform well between 64–75°F, they’re versatile for year-round use.

Available in 500, 1,000, or 5,000 count sizes, this product fits a variety of growing operations. Weekly releases are recommended for best results. Avoid using sticky cards immediately after release and control ants before introduction to prevent interference.

Release instructions for the use of Aphidius Colemani, Aphidius Ervi, A.Colemani/Ervi Mix and A.Colemani/Ervi/Aphelinus Mix

If you’ve received aphid “mummies” which have not yet begun to emerge, you may store the bottle at 64-80°F in a highly humid, shaded location until hatch begins (check twice daily). Allow up to 7 days for hatch.

When the “mummies” begin to emerge, release at sundown the same day. To release, open the container in the crop and allow the wasps to fly out on their own as you walk among the plants. You can speed up their exit by gently tapping them out. If they begin to exit too quickly or if dispersal control is not manageable (which may happen when they’re warm), re-secure the cap between release points. Concentrate the bulk of them at release points on or near the most heavily infested plants or where aphids are most likely to make
an appearance. For any that will not readily come out of the bottle, or if some remain non-emerged, simply tuck the bottle into the foliage of a plant, preferably one with the heaviest pest population. The “mummies” may also be sprinkled out. We recommend the removal of most yellow sticky traps prior to release.
Do not store the emerged adult wasps in the bottle for more than 18 hours. Hold at a humid 45-55°F (fridge best). Do not attempt to cold-store the wasps’ pupae for periods exceeding 72 hours.
