BioCucumeris (Neoseiulus cucumeris) is a predatory mite widely used in the control of immature thrips (egg and larvae). It also feeds on several mite pests. Although very small (1mm), BioCucumeris can be recognized by its oblong shape and quick mobility along the underside of leaves and in flowers.
Its ability to feed on pollen in the absence of prey, makes it an effective early prevention agent.
