Criso-Vit® is a biological pest control agent used in agriculture. This macrobiotic should be applied preventively, and once the first pest insects appear, applications must begin immediately.

Criso-Vit® can be applied to all crops where the biological targets occur, in an inundative release strategy.

Mode of action

After egg hatching, Criso-Vit® (Chrysoperla externa) larvae actively search for pests present in the crop, which serve as food during their development. Once they reach the adult stage, females deposit new eggs directly on the plants (in different locations such as leaves, branches and fruits), restarting the cycle and ensuring continuous biological control.

Application

Criso-Vit® is applied safely and innovatively, either by drone release or by manual bulk release, totaling 1,000 individuals (eggs or larvae) per hectare.

Manual bulk release is carried out with a 5 mL dispenser, distributed at 10 evenly spaced points within the hectare to ensure uniform dispersion of the biological agent.

Releases of this macrobial predator can be performed throughout the day, as long as weather conditions are favorable. It is recommended to perform 2 to 4 applications, with 7- to 10-day intervals.

Always ensure proper calibration of the drone dispenser to guarantee correct dosage and optimal control efficiency.
