More than 49 biological control companies provide nematodes, mites, insects, and bioinsecticides for pest management in Florida and the Southeast.

Nematodes are sold by 28 companies (5 species). Predators are sold by 31 companies, 26 supply mites

(10 species) and 31 supply insects (15 species) Parasitic wasps are sold by 31 companies (23 spp.).

Amblyseius swirskii Amblyseius swirskii EffectivenessEffectiveness

Very high numerical response to availability of food Highly efficacious against western flower thrips,

greenhouse whiteflies and tobacco whiteflies In combination with:

• Orius spp. against western flower thrips• Whitefly parasites against whiteflies• P. persimilis or A. californicus against two-spotted

spider mites Good establishment on pollen Whiteflies can substitute for pollen in peppers Good results in North and South Europe May replace A. cucumeris, depending on release

permits

Customer ServiceCustomer Service

Many companies provide detailed information on how to use their products.

The best companies deliver excellent customer service for site-specific biocontrol.

The marketplace ultimately determines the usefulness of commercial natural enemies.
