The pupa is brown. The egg is white, oval, and the egg period is about 7 days.

The adults have strong phototaxis, which are active frequently above 17 ℃ and lay eggs on the culture medium near mycelium growth. It takes only 15 days to complete a generation under 24 ℃, and a large number of them occur in spring and summer.

two。 The damage is caused by the larvae to damage the hyphae. Generally, the flea fly larvae invade close to the covered soil and concentrate on the mycelium where the buds grow, resulting in the death of the fruiting body. High humidity, poor ventilation, serious occurrence.

3. Prevention and cure method

(1) install screen on doors and windows to prevent adults from flying into and lay eggs, and at the same time do a good job in site cleaning and hygiene.

(2) the occurrence period of flea flies is irregular, and they get into the material and do harm, so the control should be mainly to kill adults. Pay attention to the humidity of covering soil should not be too high, in order to reduce the occurrence of a large number of flea flies.

(3) in severe cases, 1500 times diazinone was sprayed before or after collecting Ganoderma lucidum, and 3000 times deltamethrin was sprayed in the period of sprouting.
