Available in multiple pack sizes, they offer a customizable approach to maintaining healthy plants year-round. ## Description Product description Chrysoperla carnea are known as Lacewings. The larvae of Lacewings are highly effective predators of aphids and greenfly. One Lacewing larvae can consume up to 200 aphids. Greenfly Killer using Lacewing larvae is supplied as 2nd instar larvae in a re-seable tubes. The best way to use Lacewing larvae is to apply directly to aphid colonies. They can be poured from the shaker bottle directly onto the aphids. The larvae are packed in a buckwheat husk carrier material with some food. This prevents them feeding on each other in transport. Lacewing larvae are easy to apply to low growing crops or plants wide leaves. If applying to high growing crops or plants, use applicator boxes. These little boxes can be filled with Lacewing larvae and carrier material directly from the applicator bottle. They are then hung on plants. The larvae will then emerge out of the applicator boxes onto the plants. Apply Lacewings only when temperatures are above 15.c and activity will increase with higher temperatures. Apply at 10-30 per m2 or in high amounts onto heavily infested aphid areas of plants. Once the larvae develop into adults they do not feed on aphids, so repeat applications may be required for new or large infestations of aphids. Legal Disclaimer Lacewing Larvae are living creatures and can be affected by any chemical pesticides used within the previous few weeks. As a guide cease using pyrethrum or SB plant invigorator 2 days prior to use and other persistent chemicals or universal bug killers 1-2 weeks before using Lacewings.

The lacewing larvae came marching out the bottle like German stormtroopers to eat every aphid they came across. Treat ants before you use these as the ants will just kill them. ### ⭐ No signs of life. *by C***N on 18 May 2025* No signs of life in the bottle that arrived. Very disappointed - I'll go elsewhere for future needs. ### ⭐⭐⭐ I'm still curious *by C***Y on 13 July 2025* These were so tiny I could not see how they could possbily tackle the blackfly, about 4 times their size. The blackfly have disappeared, but I didn't see any larger larvae or adult ladybirds. I cannot comment on their effectiveness. ## Frequently Bought Together - Dragonfli Lacewing Larvae - Live Lacewing Larvae for Natural Control of Aphids & Greenfly (500) - Dragonfli Ladybird Larvae - Live Ladybird Larvae for the Natural Control of Aphids & Greenfly (100) - Dragonfli Ladybird Adults (Supplied As Pupae) - Live Ladybirds for The Natural Control of Aphids & Greenfly (25) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/114844902-dragonfli-lacewing-larvae-live-lacewing-larvae-for-natural-control-aphids](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/114844902-dragonfli-lacewing-larvae-live-lacewing-larvae-for-natural-control-aphids) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-07-10*
