Real good bugs for real growers 
The Garden Essentials Box is a curated mix of beneficial insects perfect for small gardens, raised garden beds, or patio full of potted plants.  Good for up to 350sqft of plants. Each box includes a working team of imperfect-but-effective bugs that help manage common pests naturally — at a better value than buying them individually.

🐞 What's Typically Inside:

Cryptolaemus beetles (mealybug destroyers and soft scale pests)

Green Lacewing larvae / eggs (aphid hunters and generalist predator)

Predatory mites (predator of Spider Mites, Russet Mites, Broad Mites, Thrips & more)

Lindorus beetles (hard scale destroyer pests)

Other Beneficial's may be included based on availability.

All insects are viable and effective, but may include mixed life stages or slightly lower-than-retail cosmetic quality. These are real bugs that do real work — not showroom models.
