Coverage depends on pest density in your growing area. As a general guideline, one box typically covers about 500 square feet. For larger spaces or more severe infestations, additional boxes may be necessary.

The best time to release the insects is in the late afternoon, ideally before dusk on the same day they arrive. Avoid releasing them during periods of extreme heat, as high temperatures can stress the insects. They perform best in cooler conditions, when the sun is lower in the sky.

Yes, they can survive high temperatures, but their activity may slow as a result. While they’ll continue to control pests, their performance may be less efficient compared to cooler conditions.

They should be released by the evening of the day they arrive. Delaying their release can decrease their viability and effectiveness. The longer they remain in their packaging, the lower their chances of successfully controlling pests.

Look closely at the sachets for signs of movement—this is the clearest indicator that the insects are alive. While many of them are tiny and hard to see, larger species like GLW are easier to spot. Even if they seem inactive, you may notice subtle movements on the sachets or paper upon closer inspection.
