The bee psylaphagus attacks all ages of psyllid nymphs, and the bee pups grow well inside the body of the psyllid nymphs. Features of this bee has high search power and finds its host quickly. The psyllophagus bee spends the winter inside the mummified psyllid nymphs on the leaves of the pistachio tree as pupae. The leaves fall off in the fall, resulting in bee pupae inside the mummified nymph. The nymph also falls off along with the leaves. Begins its reproduction. Since it is not possible to breed and release this beneficial bee, so the only possible way to support these beneficial insects is by doing less spraying and using low-risk pesticides for bees and proper farming operations in the garden.
