Trichogramma – Parasitoid Wasps from TRIHOGRAMMA SRL, part of Organic Invest Bio Protection Ltd
Trichogramma are beneficial insects – microscopic parasitoid wasps – that combat, with high efficiency, pests from the order Lepidoptera, such as moths, caterpillars, and some butterflies, providing natural protection for agricultural crops. They are suitable for corn, vegetables, orchards, vineyards, and many more.

Organic Invest Bio Protection Ltd (Bulgaria) is one of the largest producers of Trichogramma in Europe and the only company that holds in its portfolio five species of Trichogramma, as well as the green lacewing (Chrysoperla carnea) – all adapted to the specific needs of each crop type.

In 2021, Organic Invest Bio Protection made a strategic move towards the Romanian market, starting tests on hybrid corn seed plots, with exceptional results.

In 2023, to support local expansion, the company TRIHOGRAMMA SRL – Romania was established, becoming the official exclusive importer of OIBP products.

In 2025, TRIHOGRAMMA SRL launched its own online store, offering farmers quick and direct access to ecological plant protection solutions. In the same year, the team expanded by adding Mr. Lucian Cojoacă, Horticultural Engineer, a specialist in market and agricultural product development, with over 20 years of experience in the Romanian agricultural sector.

Trichogramma – the micro wasp that acts efficiently and fast
Trichogramma is a parasitoid wasp with a short life cycle (7–10 days), during which the female lays its eggs inside the pest eggs. When the Trichogramma larva hatches, it consumes the pest egg from within, thus completely stopping its development.

A single female Trichogramma lays, depending on the species, between 70 and 100 eggs per generation, ensuring rapid and effective reproduction.

Green lacewing (Chrysoperla carnea) – a valuable ally for farmers
Green lacewing is a highly beneficial insect for biological control:

In the larval stage, it is an active predator, consuming the eggs and larvae of many economically important agricultural pests, both during the day and night
Larval stage duration: 14–21 days

In the adult stage (imago), it feeds on pollen and nectar, contributing significantly to crop pollination
Adult lifespan: 20–40 days
An adult female can lay between 200 and 500 eggs, depending on weather conditions and food availability
