Feltiella acarisuga

Feltiella acarisuga, commonly known as the Spider Mite Gall Midge, is one of the most effective natural enemies of the Two-Spotted Spider Mite (Tetranychus urticae). While predatory mites are excellent for general coverage, Feltiella is a flight-capable specialist that excels at locating and decimated dense spider mite colonies in complex canopies. It is an essential addition to any Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategy for high-value crops and dense indoor gardens.

  • Scientific Name: Feltiella acarisuga

  • Primary Target: All stages of Two-Spotted Spider Mites (eggs, nymphs, and adults).

  • Format: Shipped as pupae on paper strips or in a carrier medium within ventilated bottles.

  • Mechanism: Adult midges fly to find spider mite "hot spots" and lay eggs directly in the colonies. The emerging larvae are voracious predators that consume up to 30 mites per day.

  • Best For: Rapid cleanup of active infestations and reaching pests in tall or dense foliage where crawling predators may struggle.
