How does Tripar-C work?
The adult Tripar-C wasps lay their eggs inside the False codling moth egg. Tripar-C larvae feed on the False codling moths’ larvae inside the egg and pupate. The moth egg changes colour from yellow to black. The newly hatched Tripar-C wasp emerges from the False codling moth egg.
