Natures Good Guys - Green Lacewing Eggs on Hanging Card (2,500 Eggs)

The media could not be loaded. Fast shipping and product came with already hatched larvae. I watched a YouTube video on how to use this product. Simple enough, how I know this works is I took a jewelers loop and looked at the cards. There were lobster looking creepers totally emerging from the eggs! Ewww! I’m using these in a controlled environment indoors with humidity around 60% and temperature at 70f. I have verified that I have thrips, spider mites and aphids. I will update this review in a few weeks. So far so good :)3 week update: It totally works! It’s been 3 weeks and we have adult green lacewings. Last photo is proof of it and time stamped at 3 weeks and 3 days since release. The week prior to release I held off on any other treatments which made me so nervous. Haven’t used any pesticide sprays since then. All my plants with thrips and spider mites responded great. One thing to note: Definitely do get the right amount suggested for the level of pest management you need. Most of my plants had been treated prior multiple times and due to this fact weren’t considered heavily infested. My purple passion however was the only one with aphids and heavily infested. The lower leaves had improvement after only a week, but the upper leaves are still heavily infested with the aphids. I ended up moving this plant outside. Everything else (I have over 100 plants) is inside still. I think if I wanted to successfully treat that plant with the green lacewings I should have used more than one card on it. With a mild to moderate outbreak I got away with grouping my plants with leaves all touching and placing 2-3 cards within 6-10 plants per area. This worked very well6 month update: yep still works! Love these guys. They aren’t in your face and you never see them. Out of no where you’ll find one random lacewing hanging out on the wall or something. After a few it disappears again. I really thought I’d have to just throw out my entire collection or something because I do not have it in me to be spraying my plants all the time. I haven’t done much and my plants are all thriving :)

Do not buy. What a rip off. When received the package only found one live lacewing and after a month nothing hatched. Absolutely horrible!!!!! Waste of money.

love these guys.

Didn’t Notice Much of a DifferenceUnfortunately, I didn’t see much of a change after adding this product to our garden. I had high hopes based on the description and reviews, but it didn’t seem to make a noticeable impact on plant growth or overall health. It may work better in different conditions, but for our space, the results just weren’t there.

Some eggs had already hatched but I used these at the beginning of the season to prevent harmful bugs

The cards were mostly white. I looked it up and there should be more green eggs. I gave a 2 star because there were a few, like maybe 5, live babies that I dusted into my garden. Hopefully they will be happy and stay and repopulate.

Shipping was quick and they hatched within a week. However, I didn't really notice a change in the whiteflies I bought them to devour.

Arrived fast and in a safe shipping box. They survived shipping in the crazy heatwave. Some had hatched in the packaging already and we're alive and well. They are so very tiny it's hard to find them in the garden but the hatch rate I saw I know they are in there. I will purchase again to try and keep a healthy population of these little guys protecting my garden.
