AphidLiv Breeding System
AphidLiv Breeding System
Banker Plant
Pickup available at Canada
Usually ready in 24 hours
This product contains wheatgrass infested with bird cherry-oat aphids (Rhopalosiphum padi), which serve as a supplemental food source for Aphidius colemani, a parasitoid wasp that targets green peach, cotton, and melon aphids.
Aphidius colemani is not included.
When Aphidius colemani is released alongside this system, it creates a self-sustaining environment, allowing the wasps to reproduce and continuously disperse throughout the greenhouse in search of aphid pests.

Getting these aphids was like a Christmas present for me, I was so happy to recieve them. My only wish is that the container they came in could close, I got 2 "male" lids taped together instead of two that could snap together. This means I can't close the container and some aphids died on the tape.
Hundreds of aphids and the grass are still alive a week later, so overall i am very satisfied.
Thank you for your feedback! We apologize for the issue with the container lids and will work on improving our packaging. We're glad to hear the aphids are doing well overall!
I was so excited to find banker plants and have been looking for them for 3 years! Everything came in looking really good.
Wow that's a long time, we're glad we could help! Thanks for the review :)
