Male A. aphidimyza have long, hair-covered antennae, while females possess shorter, thicker antennae. To initiate mating, females fly to spider webs, where they wait for a male partner. To enhance the likelihood of successful mating, leave existing spider webs or use stretched cotton balls to simulate them. Within 2-3 days, the eggs hatch into orange, legless maggots, each measuring up to 3mm, and with a voracious appetite for 7-14 days. Following this feeding phase, the larvae pupate within a cocoon, eventually emerging as adults to initiate the reproductive cycle anew. A. aphidimyza are typically shipped in the pupal (cocoon) stage, nestled in moist vermiculite or sand.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NaturesGoodGuys","offers":[{"title":"250 Nymphs per Bottle","offer_id":19092955463739,"sku":"281","price":28.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1k Nymphs per Bottle","offer_id":19093079162939,"sku":"282","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2k Nymphs per Bottle","offer_id":19093079195707,"sku":"283","price":90.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1373\/5481\/files\/IMG_2032_1800x1560_717ae386-38a4-4798-9abc-65b65081a9a0.png?v=1742503078","url":"https:\/\/www.naturesgoodguys.sbs\/products\/aphidoletes-aphidimyza","provider":"NaturesGoodGuys","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
