Hey pals, I just tried feeding A.Dubernardi on Cedrus Atlantica. On the images there are 1st instar and 2d instar larvae. They reached this size in 5 days It seems to work nice That's all folks. Tassos  Attachments:

Sorry for the late reply mates!
First semester fever.. (MSC student)
Currently i live in Southampton, UK
Latitude: 50° 54' North
This is the blue variety of c.atlantica
Lost some larvae in the first attempt due to virus infections but i m keeping a second population as a control measure. No problems so far!

I will have to give them a try myself, I have a large Cedrus atlantica 'glauca' here in Kent.

well if you d like too, but the results are not final yet. Keep in mind that if finally it s proven that it doesnt work you may lose your larvae. You can split them to try them out though
