Great recent question from a member of the Organic Club of America about what are the best species of Trichogramma wasps and best sellers to buy. As a result, I have updated the entry on DirtDoctor.com. Hope this helps because when new foliage starts to emerge, it is in general the best time to start releasing these wonderful beneficial insects.
