In particular, I am interested in mass rearing Phytoseiulus persimilis.
Californicus is also an option, but a secondary priority. Any information is
greatly appreciated. I recently found some new compendiums regarding mass
rearing that I may need to purchase to really get serious about this, but a jump
start would be helpful!

Thanks,

Michael

anyone give direction for a results based approach to establishing an artificial
diet for these little dudes that will have them reproducing? I heard they will
survive on honey, but won't lay. Wheast? Any ideas would be helpful. I know
that most people in the business don't like to share knowledge, any little hints
are appreciated!
