See Encarsia formosa & Eretmocerus eremicus from blisterpack to control whitefly. Poinsettia crops can prevent whitefly from becoming a problem with a proactive approach using Bio cutting dips & BCA techniques. Like to learn more? Contact us for more information. @BioWorksInc

Many Mum cuttings are started in June. Now is the time think about pest problems and preventing them, using BCAs and pro active dipping before sticking them. cuttings in the picture were dipped and every plug tray has a sachet with A. cucumeris. Like to learn more? @BioWorksInc

Amblyseius cucumeris sachets are little production units of these great little predatory mites, protecting plants from thrips & broadmites from getting established. Applying these sachets before the baskets go up to avoid suprises when the baskets come down to ship @BioWorksInc

Time to hang baskets.....and to make sure that they are protected against thrips and broadmites. Applying sachets with Amblyseius cucumeris is the best way to avoid these peat problems from getting established. #biocontrol @BioWorksInc

Visiting some poinsettia growers this week, some real outstanding quality poinsettias ready to find their new home. Healthy Root system on these poinsettia plants (Early innoculation Rootshield Plus). Clean Plants, no whitefly AND no insecticides, with BCA Eretmocerus eremicus.

Thanks Jeff, great spending time with you and a Carter Kent visiting awesome greenhouses in ornamental production, tropical plant production and vegetable production. Great to see biocontrol and BioWorks at work. @BioWorksInc @JeffreyLuke

Great BioControl Workshop @ Plug and Cutting Conference from @American_Hort. Demonstrations on how to use BCAs, here using Botanigard, Rootshield+ and Nemashield for dipping cuttings to limited hitchhikers. Thank you @American_Hort @MetrolinaGHS @BugladySuzanne @BioWorksInc

BioControl takes flight by releasing Phytoseiulus persimilis and Amblyseius cucumeris on Garden mums by Drone at Metrolina Greenhouses in NC. This demonstration by @ParaBug was done during the BioControl Workshop at Plug and Cutting Conference of @American_Hort @BioWorksInc

Applying Phytoseiulus persimilis and Amblyseius cucumeris on mums during the BioControl Workshop at the Plug & Cutting conference @AmericanHort. This demonstration by @parabug showed growers a way of releasing BCA on a larger scale. Thanks @Metrolina, @ParaBug @AmericanHort

Could be a peacock (young one) or a peahen. Awesome birds. We had a couple and they functioned as ‘guard dogs’ on our property, keeping the Canadian geese away from the ponds, were very good with our chicken and the kids absolutely loved them.
