Use for
Pests
House fly (Musca domestica), biting stable flies (Stomoxys spp.), lesser house fly (Fannia canicularis) and other Fannia spp.
How it works
Mode of action
When the adult parasitic wasps emerge from the pupal shells, they will start searching for fly pupae to parasitize. After parasitism, wasps of the new generation can be expected in approximately 2-3 weeks.
