Measuring about 3-4mm long, they are light to dark brown in color with short wing covers and flexible elongated abdomens that curve upward under certain stimuli. Dalotia coriaria are active fliers and fast runners so it’s advisable to wait until you’re in the introduction area to open the container. Adult females lay several hundred individual eggs in the soil or growing medium near pest populations. These eggs hatch within 3-7 days into larvae, initiating an active feeding phase that lasts for about 10-14 days before entering the pupal stage. After approximately 3-7 days of pupation, they emerge from the cocoon as adults. The lifecycle from egg to adult is approximately 14-21 days, and the adult lifespan is about 2-4 weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor complete fungus gnat control, use in conjunction with \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.naturesgoodguys.sbs\/products\/hypoaspis-miles?variant=39911211729087\" title=\"Hypoaspis miles\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eHypoaspis miles\u003c\/a\u003e, a soil-dwelling predatory mite, and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.naturesgoodguys.sbs\/products\/5-million-live-beneficial-nematodes-sf-fungus-gnat-rootknot-gall-exterminator?variant=23323522563\" title=\"Beneficial Nematodes SF\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eBeneficial Nematodes SF\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NaturesGoodGuys","offers":[{"title":"100 Insects","offer_id":13588202586171,"sku":"665","price":18.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500 Insects","offer_id":32919386259515,"sku":"667","price":54.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1k Insects","offer_id":23372849219,"sku":"668","price":78.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3k Insects","offer_id":42677205795007,"sku":"669","price":224.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1373\/5481\/files\/IMG_2111_1800x1350_97118a0f-a1b3-4270-8a18-57a42b5cdd52.png?v=1742503152"},{"product_id":"harris-neem-oil-100-cold-pressed","title":"Harris 100% Cold Pressed Neem Oil - 12-fl oz","description":"\u003cp\u003eHarris Neem Oil is a completely natural, 100% cold pressed and unrefined neem oil concentrate, with no added chemicals.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NaturesGoodGuys","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42266357694655,"sku":"203","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1373\/5481\/files\/Harris-Neem-Oil-1800x1275.png?v=1742503022"},{"product_id":"natria-neem-oil-rtu","title":"NATRIA Neem Oil - 24-fl oz","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #38761d;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"color: #38761d;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #0077b3;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"color: #0077b3;\"\u003eABOUT NATRIA NEEM OIL - READY TO USE\u003c\/span\u003e:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eHelp stop pests and diseases with Natria Neem Oil.
