What is ADALIA?


ADALIA is a small ladybird that can be recognized by two dots on the back. Usually they are red with two black dots; but other color variants occur too. ADALIA is indigenous to the Netherlands. Which is why this predatory beetle can also be applied outdoors.

Hoe does ADALIA work?


The beetles are very effective at removing high densities of aphids and lay eggs near aphids. The larvae that emerge from the eggs can devour up to hundreds of aphids during their development. Both the lady beetle adults and larvae feed on all stages of aphids. An effect is visible within one week. ADALIA is effective against many different aphid species; such as lime aphid; maple aphid; rose aphid; foxglove aphid; potato aphid and green peach aphid.

How to combine ADALIA


Parasitoids are a great addition when the aphids are more dispersed. Both APHISCOUT and APHIPAR are a great choice in addition to ADALIA. APHIDEND is ideal under humid conditions. The larvae of this gall midge can devour great numbers of aphids. Have a look in our webshop for more products against aphids.
