Keep your predators fed, active, and breeding when pests are scarce
Beneficial predators do not just leave when they run out of prey, they starve or stop reproducing, and you lose the standing patrol you paid for. NUTRIforce Ephestia eggs solve that. These nutrient-rich Mediterranean flour moth eggs are a supplemental food that sustains predators like the minute pirate bug and green lacewing larvae when pest numbers are low, keeping them active and reproducing so they are ready the moment a pest outbreak starts.
Live insects ship on Tuesdays only and arrive Wednesday. Orders must be placed 7 days in advance. Anything ordered by 3pm EST Tuesday ships the following Tuesday by UPS overnight shipping.

Nutrient-rich alternative prey Ephestia eggs
These Mediterranean flour moth eggs are a premium alternative food source that predators readily feed on when pest numbers are low, keeping them nourished between outbreaks.
Supports key predators
It is ideal supplemental food for the minute pirate bug, green lacewing larvae, Dicyphus, and other generalist beneficial predators you may be running.
Boosts activity and breeding
Well-fed predators stay more active and reproduce more, so a supplemented population is larger and quicker to respond when a pest outbreak hits.
Protects your investment
Rather than watching predators starve out and rebuying, feeding them keeps the biocontrol you already paid for alive and working on the crop.
Bridges the quiet spells
It is most valuable when pest pressure is low but you want to maintain a predator presence, which is common in a well-run preventative program.
