Green Lacewings 2500 Count

Knock out soft-bodied pests the natural way!

These cards contain approximately 2,500 green lacewing eggs. Green lacewing larvae resemble alligators in both appearance and appetite. The eggs begin to hatch within three to five days. Once they hatch, the tiny larvae start looking for their first meal. Green lacewing larvae eat soft-bodied pests like aphids, thrips, mealybugs, and whiteflies. The larvae can consume up to 200 aphids or other insect eggs. They travel as far as 100 feet from their hatch site in search of food. Just hang the card on plant foliage and nature does the rest! Once they are adults, lacewings feed on honeydew, nectar, and pollen. They work well with existing ladybug populations, or as a substitute for ladybugs. Adults live for four to six weeks. During that time, females lay up to 200 eggs, creating a new batch of larvae to continue the fight! These insects ship directly from the supplier.
