Click Here for Chart | | |  Cotesia Plutellae adult wasp, is a host specific killer of Diamondback caterpillars. The female wasp deposits her eggs within bodies of 2 day old Diamondback caterpillars, the most destructive pest of brassicae crops! Cotesia stops
this pest dead in its tracks anywhere in the world Diamondback can live. From the 7000' mountain top Broccoli fields in Guatemala to sea level fields of Cabbage in Florida, and from Collard fields in North Carolina to Kale fields in California, Cotesia works for the farmer! Eliminating the need for sprayable, toxic materials for pest control, Cotesia save farmers between 15% and 50% on the cost of pest control. Compared to sprayable materials, Cotesia
works better, is safe for applicators and harvest crews, conserves natural resources and is environmentally compatible! Below Ralph Eubanks, of Sale City, raised collards produced in a Biocontrol regimen for Diamondback giving more tonnage and higher quality crops.
