- Check out how i use predatory bugs to fight pests on my plants. What method do you use? Have you ever tried predatory bugs? This is in my opinion the best way because it is natural and doesnt cost a lot of time.
I get my bugs and products from:

Beneficial mites & nematodes work wonders I use both will always use them on a cycle spring and fall
Yes I love them!
i actually left a spider live on my plants and it did a great job against fungus gnats
Haha that's perfect! 👌🏻❤️
I love working with nematodes and predatory mites. It worked so well to fight fungus gnats and thripse. It's so easy and save for the enviroment and nature .
Yes!! Happy to hear you like them too
Using nematodes has come up a few times during my own research for dealing with fungus gnats, so I've definitely been considering it, but was just a little nervous😳 your video has really made me feel better about the whole process! Thank you!
Great video, Roos! I've been thinking about integrated pests for awhile but I don't think my landlord would be appreciative.
Thanks so much kristy! The ones I have are so small that noone would be able to tell! You need to be real close up to even see them
Love predatory bugs/mites.
I have use them for over a year now.
I buy new ones every 2-3 month.
Amblyseius swirskii, for thrip larva and they actually take different kinds of mites too and some other pests.
Hypoaspis, these ones you put above the soil, they love too live in the soil and eat the thrip in the soil, they takes fungus gnats aswell.
Orius Majusculus, these ones eat the adult Thrip and ofcourse the larvas, but they don't live so long, but it's great too have them eating the adult thrip and kill a lot of them.
I agree with you, it's easy too use, I don't have time too spray all plants and I don't like too use poison, I'm so happy too do it this way!! 💪
That's awesome!! Great job 🙌🏻
Fantastic video, I tried this process about 4 weeks back and found company here in uk that supply beneficial predators and it was thank to you as I saw baggy in one of your videos 😍 and it’s amazing way to treat plants safely be nice to planet 🌍
That's awesome! What is the company if you don't mind sharing? For others in the UK!
Very awesome way to deal with the problem naturally
Thank you very much!
Pests prevention and pests control equal Happy Plants 🌱🌿🙏🦋💚☀️
Haha yes exactly! Thank you
Hello from Cabot Arkansas. Love your Videos!! This week I began my beneficial bug journey and I agree that using nature to combat pests makes it easier to enjoy the plant experience more when I don’t have to keep treating my Alocasias and a couple of philo’s for spider mites. I’m wanting to get some praying mantises and ladybugs for my greenhouse.
That's awesome! I hope it works well for you
Thank you for this. Always wondered how good bugs worked.
Thanks for watching Sue!
Great video! Have been looking into predatory insect for quite some time and your "tutorial" really helps me understand how to use them. Thanks for that!
I'm happy to hear it! Thanks 😅
Drooling at that hoya linearis 😛
Haha thanks! I am so fascinated by the opposites in our videos - every time you say a plant is more difficult or expensive, it's a cheap and easy one here.. And the other way around! Love your channel
Ok need to buy “bugs” 🥰
I use the mosquito bits for the fungus gnats and they works very well for me.
Thank you for this informative video.
Haha yes try it! I've heard of those but haven't found them here in the Netherlands yet. Thanks for watching!
Dank je wel, Roos!!!! Ik denk dat dit een goede oplossing is als het (ooit) weer drukker wordt. Nu heb ik veel tijd om te sprayen en bladeren te wassen (lees: me bezig te houden), maar hopelijk komt er een tijd deze beestjes het werk kunnen overnemen!
Haha wat goed! Fijn dat je er nu tijd voor hebt ❤️
Your videos are so very helpful! 💚🪴
Thank you very much! Happy to help 🙌🏻
As always, thank you so much for your recommendations. It's worth to try it for sure ! :)
Thank you!
leaving some love for the good bugs💚
Yay they appreciate it 😉🥰❤️
I wish those Koppert sachets were easier to buy in smaller quantities. I literally want two packets, for my two most thrips prone plants. I can't make use of 25 or 50!
Yeah i get that. Maybe you can split an order with plant friends? That's what I've seen people doing a lot.
Jaaa goede beestjes! ❤💚 top video dit! 😁😁
Leuk hè! Een leger van beestjes die mijn planten veilig houden 😅❤️
very cool video! thanks for the great info 😊
Happy to hear it emma thank you!
Man awesome video girl I wish we had that option in the US!!
Thank you very much! There are options in the US actually, I just don't know them myself. Maybe someone can help? Also check @homesteadbrooklyn videos on this, maybe she mentions where she gets hers from!
@@plantwithroos ok definitely will be checking everything out to get more info thank you so much I appreciate that 🤩💖
I’m just here to say hi, love!!
Omg heeyyy!! I saw your stories today, so nice to see your face ❤️❤️❤️
For future ref, pupae is pronounced "p-you-pay" :) the way you pronounced it like "puppayee" was super cute though, like puppy!!
Hahaha thank you!!! I never heard that word before and only saw it written on the site 😅🤭
Hi, they offer several products for spider mites. How is it possible to find out which product do you need????? Thanks for this video.
Check the website where you're buying or contact their customer service
I am definitely gonna order from them soon. I am just waiting for higher temperatures cause I am afraid they could die in transport. I have seen people place these bags lying on the long side at the bottom of plants. Were you advised against doing that?
Yes! Another business actually told me to do that to keep their baggies moist, but this is a different brand and they actually called me to say, we see you have them on the soil, they shouldn't be. Like I said, great service! And it depends on the brand / bag / bug setup.
I see, good you pointed it out. I will contact them before placing an order, to make sure I buy the right product and handle it correctly.I am having troubles getting rid of scale this time around, and the ever present spidermites of course 😥
Yes highly recommend contacting them first to double check if you have the right plan
dank je wel voor dit video ! zodra het weer beter is zal ik daar ook wat bestellen , kun je die zakjes ook als je nog geen pest hebt ophangen of is het dan nutteloos en gaan die beestjes te snel dood dan ? en hoe lang kun je die nematodes bewaren als de verpakking nog dicht is ? ik had die ooit ook tegen fungus knats en dat hielp super ( maar van en ander merk )
Even bij hun vragen! Ik gebruik ze ook preventief maar dat kan niet met alle beestjes
💚💚💚❤
Thank you Heather!!
Can you tell me where you got that little cardboard thing that you pour the predatory mites in? Thank you🥰
It came with the order! From www.entocare.nl
@@plantwithroos oh! Alright i will see if they arrive with mine too. Made an order ealier today. Thanks for your answer!🤗
Ooo where did you get your tent?
@@Lindz04261 the growtent? I don't use it anymore, it ruined our floors and walls cos of condensation 😭 plus I prefer to see the plants so now I use see-through prop boxes and terrariums. This tent was from Mars hydro, made for the weed industry so if you do try it, careful with the way too bright lights they sell with it. (I don't recommend them, they are not very nice to creators they work with plus the other issues I mentioned above 🫢
Oh wow!! No grow tent for me then no way haha thank you
Sorry haha I prefer to be honest and warn people 🤭❤️ if you have a basement or something where you can't ruin walls or floors with water then yes it's great! 😅
Don't you make holes in the bags? :) I am always doing this otherwise they will not come out xD
No there are holes in them already!
Hi Roos will the worms die eventually?
I don't know what happens to them actually! I can't find it on the website either unfortunately, I'll ask them next time we chat!
Do you know of a good company in the U.S. to purchase from?
I don't, but check on Summer Raynes channel and blog, she is how I learned about the use of good bugs!
@@plantwithroos thanks!
