(Times of Israel) David Shamah - Spider mites that harm plants and crops in Colombia will soon meet their match when Israeli-produced carnivorous spiders are deployed to destroy their colonies. In a new deal, Israeli biotech firm BioBee will send 600 million spiders to help Colombian farmers battle the spider mites that threaten Colombia's biggest cash crop - coffee. The spiders, raised at BioBee's Jordan Valley facility, are twice the size of the mites they will be attacking. And they're not interested in the leaves of plants that the red spider mites attack. "With our product, farmers will be able to reduce the amount of pesticides they use, and thus meet international standards for export," the company said.2015-11-26 00:00:00Full Article
