Custom-made biological control
We offer a wide range of natural enemies, supplemented with materials such as sticky traps and pheromone traps. With our unique products from our own rearings you can control difficult pests such as mealybugs, scale insects and thrips in a sustainable biological way.
We have extensive experience in applying biological control in many different situations: from large greenhouses with a single crop to botanical gardens with a great diversity of plants. Based on our knowledge, we can provide targeted advice on biological pest control. Our consultants are happy to visit you, but we can often also give advice by phone or email.
In-house rearing
Fresh products give the best results in practice. Because we rear most of our products in-house, we can supply biological control agents that meet the highest quality requirements.
For our own products applies: ordered in the morning = prepared and shipped the same day. This way you are guaranteed to receive a fresh product at home the next day.
Unique products
Combining is the magic word at Entocare. Using both predators and parasitoids in the biological control of mealybugs, for example. We rear unique products that offer exactly the added value that you often need. They are all specialists who especially prove their worth combatting difficult pests or in complex situations.

System approach
Plants, pests and their natural enemies are part of an intricate ecosystem in which all kinds of interactions occur. We respect the dynamics of this system. This is reflected in our consultancy work: we focus on a healthy system as a whole and tackle difficult pests with a combination of suitable products. In this way we want to create a stable situation so that unsustainable outbreaks are a thing of the past.
Our customers
From greenhouse cultivation to botanical garden
Effective biological control requires a tailor-made approach. We assist business customers in setting up a sustainable crop protection system. We do this by regularly visiting customers, educating them in pest recognition and learning how to recognize and assess the activity of biological control agents. The monitoring is done by the grower, while we supply all materials and provide support and advice.

Vegetable cultivation
Propylea in practice
What started with the spontaneous discovery of a native lady beetle, has grown into a successful product for the biological control of persistent aphids in greenhouse vegetable cultivation.
Botanical garden, Zoo
The Orchideeën Hoeve
A great diversity of plant species presents a great challenge for natural crop protection. The biological control at the Orchideeën Hoeve is a very good example of such a challenge.
