The product is a mix of the parasitoids Aphidius colemani, Aphidius matricariae, Aphidius ervi, Aphelinus abdominalis, Ephedrus cerasicola and Praon volucre. MIXcontrol has been designed to control the main species of aphids present in horticultural crops. They are able to parasitize aphids of any stage, including the winged ones. In addition to parasitism the individuals release a pheromone that incites the aphids to let themselves fall into the ground, dying some of of them in the process.
