Green lacewing eggs against aphids – natural help for up to 10 m²

GREEN GUARDIA green lacewing eggs (Chrysoperla carnea) offer a natural and chemical-free way to combat aphids and other soft-bodied pests. The lacewing eggs are supplied in a convenient tube and can be applied directly to the affected plants.

Each tube contains over 400 lacewing eggs and is sufficient for an application area of up to 10 m². After application, the eggs develop directly on-site. The young lacewing larvae subsequently hatch on the plants and begin searching for suitable prey.

Why green lacewing eggs?

The eggs of Chrysoperla carnea hatch into lacewing larvae, which are also known as “aphid lions” due to their voracious appetite. During their development, the larvae prey on numerous small, soft-bodied pests. By applying the eggs, the beneficial insects can develop directly at the site of infestation.

  • Over 400 eggs per tube: A high number of lacewing eggs for targeted application on up to 10 m².
  • On-site development: The eggs are applied to the plants so that the larvae hatch and develop directly in the area of application.
  • Active beneficials: After hatching, the young larvae begin searching for suitable prey.
  • Versatile use: Suitable for aphids as well as other small, soft-bodied pests and their developmental stages.
  • Suitable for many plants: Can be used on vegetables, herbs, ornamental plants, and houseplants.
  • Natural pest control: Supports the regulation of pest infestations without chemical residues.

Benefits at a glance

  • Over 400 green lacewing eggs per tube
  • Sufficient for an application area of up to 10 m²
  • Lacewing larvae hatch and develop directly at the site of use
  • Natural support for aphid infestations
  • Chemical-free application with no residues
  • Suitable for indoors, greenhouses, balconies, and sheltered outdoor areas
  • Simple and targeted application on the affected plants

How to use the lacewing eggs correctly

  • Apply promptly: Use the lacewing eggs as soon as possible after receipt.
  • Open the tube carefully: Distribute the contents gently and as evenly as possible throughout the intended application area.
  • Target infested areas: Preferably apply the eggs near plants with pest infestations so that the later-hatching larvae can quickly reach their prey.
  • Wait for development: After application, the eggs develop on-site. The young lacewing larvae then hatch and begin hunting for food.
  • Create suitable conditions: Moderate to warm conditions are particularly well-suited for the development of these beneficial insects.
  • Avoid direct sunlight: Preferably apply in the morning or evening and protect the eggs from intense direct sunlight.
  • Do not use incompatible pesticides: While using beneficial insects, avoid products that could harm lacewing eggs or larvae.
  • Control ants: Ants can protect aphids and thereby interfere with natural pest regulation.

Application areas for GREEN GUARDIA green lacewing eggs

  • Houseplants: Natural pest control in living and office spaces
  • Greenhouse & conservatory: Suitable for vegetables, herbs, and ornamental plants
  • Balcony & terrace: For potted and container plants in sheltered areas
  • Raised beds & garden: For targeted treatment of infested plant areas
  • Sensitive crops: A natural alternative to chemical pest control

🌿 Tip: The effect does not start immediately upon application, as the lacewing eggs need to develop and the larvae must hatch first. After hatching, the young larvae become active and begin searching for aphids and other suitable prey. Check your plants regularly and repeat the application if necessary for severe or recurring infestations.

FAQ's

Lacewing larvae, also known as "aphid lions," are natural predators of aphids, mealybugs, thrips, and other pests. They feed exclusively on these pests and reduce the infestation naturally.

Depending on the variant chosen, our products contain either lacewing eggs on cards, loose lacewing eggs in a bag, or already hatched lacewing larvae in a practical cardboard honeycomb. All variants are designed for easy and targeted application of the beneficial insects.

Yes, lacewing larvae are completely harmless to humans, pets, and plants. They leave no residues and disappear once their work is done.

Lacewing larvae are suitable for the natural control of aphids, mealybugs, scale insects, thrips, and spider mites.

The hatched larvae are only 1–2 mm long and often hide on the undersides of leaves. Their activity is usually only visible through the reduction of pests.

Depending on temperature and humidity, the larvae hatch within 1 to 5 days and remain active for about 2–4 weeks.

Depending on the chosen variant, you will receive lacewing eggs on cards, loose lacewing eggs in a bag, or lacewing larvae in a practical cardboard honeycomb.

No – they contain eggs in various stages of development. The larvae will hatch in the following days.

Best applied at the first signs of pest infestation – this allows the beneficial insects to intervene early.

Ideally, use them immediately. Short-term storage for 1–2 days at 8–12°C is possible.

Shipping information:

  • Fresh shipping: Orders placed between Monday and Friday 5:00 AM are shipped fresh daily.
  • Weekend orders: Orders placed after Friday 5:00 AM will be shipped the following Monday to guarantee the freshest beneficial insects.

One card is sufficient for up to 2 m² of plant area. Use multiple cards for heavier infestations or larger areas.

The lacewing eggs or larvae are applied directly near the affected plants. Cards can simply be hung up or laid between the plants. The bag can be opened at the perforation – then the eggs can be hung up directly or carefully sprinkled. Carefully shake out the lacewing larvae from the cardboard honeycomb into the affected area. For best results, apply as early as possible and avoid using chemical agents.

At 15°C after approx. 5–7 days, at 20°C already after 2–3 days.

Leave them in place for at least 2-3 weeks so all larvae can hatch and become active.

In case of severe or recurring infestation, a second application after 2–3 weeks is recommended.

Yes – e.g., on a balcony, terrace, or in the garden. However, direct sunlight and heavy rain should be avoided.

No – the cards are ready to use. Simply place them, and hatching occurs automatically. Please open the bags at the perforation.

The freshly hatched larvae are barely visible to the naked eye. They start hunting pests immediately after hatching and only become more clearly visible later.

As early as after 5–10 days, depending on temperature, plant type, and pest density.

Yes – ideal for indoor areas, conservatories, or greenhouses.

Yes – lacewings can be combined well with parasitic wasps or predatory mites.

The larvae eat the pests, pupate later, or disappear on their own – completely without residues.

Yes – they are mostly made of biodegradable material and can be disposed of in organic waste.
