Are Koppert Thripex-Plus (Neoseiulus cucumeris) 500 pack poisonous? I just bought hanging flowers and one of the packets was in the flowers.

Answer:

The Koppert Thripex-Plus (Neoseiulus cucumeris) 500 pack are predatory mites that control spider mites,(strawberry mite, broad mite, several other mites, honeydew and pollen) and are commonly used in greenhouses and field crops and plants. We would recommend contacting the nursery where you purchased the plants for clarification on why they included this in the flowers.
