DESCRIPTION

Manufacturer: AgroBio

Diglyphus isaea is a small parasitic wasp that controls the most important species of leafminers. The population of Diglyphus isaea grows faster than the leafminers’ population. When the female of D. isaea finds a leafminer, paralyses it and lays an egg next to it. From the egg emerges a larva, which feeds on the dead leafminer.
