What are the methods for controlling mushroom gnats in edible fungi?
How are mushroom gnats controlled in edible fungi.
Edible fungus cultivation, as a good money-making project with small investment, short cycle and quick results, has developed particularly fast. Mushroom gnats are a relatively serious insect pest of edible fungi. When the damage is severe during cultivation, the mushroom primordia and caps are gnawed bare, forming headless mushrooms. Today the editor tells everyone about the control techniques for mushroom gnats in edible fungi.
1. Before using the mushroom house, seal the mushroom house and fumigate it with "Guchong Yixunjing" or "Xunchong 120 smoke bomb insecticide" to kill the eggs.
2. Old and new fungus bags in the mushroom house must not be mixed together. The waste material after each season's harvest must be dealt with promptly, and new mushrooms can only be planted after the mushroom house has been thoroughly disinfected.
3. After larvae are found in the fungus bags, trapping and killing methods can be used. Dilute "Chongmanjing" 500 times with water, add half a jin of white sugar and half a bottle of white vinegar per sprayer (15 kg), stir well, and spray directly on the bag opening. The control principle is: pests all like to eat sweet and acidic things. When the larvae in the fungus bag smell the sweet substance at the bag opening, they will crawl out of the bag to feed and die. For growers with a small planting scale, after larvae appear, after harvesting the mushrooms, the fungus bags can also be soaked in a 1000-times "Chongmanjing" solution for about 4 hours. This not only replenishes the moisture of the fungus bags, but also has a strong killing effect on the pests in the bags. (The main ingredient of Chongmanjing is diafenthiuron, a biological pesticide that does not harm the mycelium or the mushroom bodies.)
4. During the growing period, at intervals of about 4 days, close the mushroom house at night and fumigate it once with "Guchong Yixunjing" or "Xunchong 120 smoke bomb insecticide". The effect is very good.
The spawn culture room should be inspected and fumigated regularly. When making spawn, the test tubes should be tightly plugged with cotton balls and wrapped with a layer of kraft paper to prevent pests from entering. If pests are found in the spawn, it must be treated by methods such as fumigation or low-temperature freezing, and can only be used after inspection confirms the pests are dead.
