How does biological control with Ervi-System work?; Females lay hundreds of eggs during the first 4 days of their adult life; The parasitic wasps detect alarm signals from an affected plant and the smell of honeydew secreted by the host. This allows them to locate aphid hot spots from a long distance; They can parasitize hundreds of aphids; The parasitic wasps parasitize both adults and nymphs; Parasitized aphids change into golden brown mummies; Parasitic wasps can cause a panic reaction, due to which the aphids fall onto the ground and die; In which crops can you introduce Ervi-System?; Ornamental crops such as chrysanthemum and gerbera; Vegetable crops such as tomato, eggplant and pepper; Soft fruit such as strawberry and raspberry; Tree nursery
