This is a predatory mite just as small as a spider mite, by the way, one millimeter, two millimeters long, not more than that, running quickly, hunting, chasing the spider mites.

By the way, a meal for them for 24 hours is about five individuals of the spider mites, of the bad mites, or 15 to 20 eggs of the pest mites.

Have we ever heard of a dust mite?

Here is a pest, devastating pest, a spider mite, because it does a lot of webbing like a spider.

And here you can see this lady in action on your left hand side just pierces, sucks the body fluids on the left hand side of the pest mite.

And Israeli strawberries, even more 80 percent of the pesticides, especially those aimed against pest mites in strawberries.

We know that there are these varroa mites that have introduced and caused a lot of losses, and we also have this new phenomenon, which I talked about last year, Colony Collapse Disorder.
