APHIPAR - Parasitic Wasp Aphidius Colemani
Adult female parasitic wasps lay their eggs parasitically in the aphids, causing them to swell and harden into leathery, grey/brown mummies. The first adult parasitic wasps emerge through a round hole at the rear of the mummy approximately 2 weeks after introduction. Each bottle contains mummies mixed with wood chips.
