For button mushroom farmers, the fight against fungus gnats and sciarid flies is constant. These pests can devastate a crop by damaging mycelium and introducing diseases.
Chemical pesticides are often a risky solution, potentially leaving harmful residues on the harvest. This is where Bti, or Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis, comes in.
Bti is a naturally occurring soil bacterium that is lethal to the larvae of certain flying pests but is completely harmless to humans, animals, earthworms, and the mushroom mycelium itself.
As a targeted, organic, and effective biopesticide, Bti is revolutionizing integrated pest management (IPM) in mushroom houses, offering a safe way to protect yields and ensure a clean, marketable product.
