About:

DMV Beneficials is a national all-volunteer organization that provides the houseplant community with the highest quality beneficial insects for the lowest prices in the industry. We offer two methods for ordering beneficials: through a local chapter delivered to a central pickup location or through this webshop delivered directly to your home!

For successful pest management, it’s important to stay away from purchasing beneficials through Amazon, live sales platforms, or disreputable sellers. Our beneficial insects are shipped overnight straight from the insectary where they are reared — Beneficial Insectary — reducing transit times and temperature fluctuations caused by long-term storage or repackaging.

We also advise on plant pest identification, provide targeted treatment plans, and connect growers with a community of plant enthusiasts who believe in informed pest management using beneficial insects. Explore our website for more information about houseplant pests, beneficial insects, treatment plans, release tutorials, and more!
