DragonfliHypoaspis Miles Predatory Mites - Kill Sciarid Fly/Fungus Fly Larvae & Thrip Pupae (50000)

I have been using this product for about 3 years to keep fungus gnats numbers low. In fact it eradicated them a few times and is the only thing that works! I keep various invertebrates and use it in their substrate. It’s harmless to them but keeps the pain in the ass flies at bay. It needs to be used continually over time (but large time lapse in between treatments) as these gnats will easily repopulate but it’s made life much easier. They really do piss me off. I know I said it before but I say it again it’s the ONLY product that works!

Tiny little bottle of dirt arrived after a week; I divided the soil content between 8 indoor plant pots - sprinkling a teaspoon of the dirt on top of the soil in each pot - and within a week my rampant infestation of tiny leaf eating flies hatching pin head eggs had completely disappeared - worked well and very simple to use.

The treatment did not work, contacted the company and their suggestion was to buy more. I would recommend looking for a cheaper solution that works!

Very powerful the only issue is the poor bugs die off once they have nothing left to feed on.

I had no problem receiving the product in time.The container arrived in a package saying it contains live insects and clear instructions how to apply inside the package. I shook the container and spread the contents on top of the soil in all affected pots. I could not see any mite in the mix, but assumed they are too small to be seen with naked eye.Ten days has passed and the flies are still hatching. I can even see the white larvae moving around in the pot, but still cannot see any mites around. So I guess I will look for another remedy for the pests.

These mites are great value for money - a little goes a long way. Add them to the topsoil of new plants or after re-potting to guard against fungus gnats and other soil-dwelling pests . They'll get established and pay dividends well into the future.

I bought 2000 and I could see maybe 10 when I emptied the bottle into my tub. I’m hoping the rest are super tiny but the 10 I saw were the size I was expecting. Very disappointed.Well the next day I could see loads and loads of mites so very pleased. They were just a lot smaller than I was expecting

I couldn't find a single in the pot, the last time I have used Hypoapsis Miles they would immediately escape the pot when opened.
