Ecobotix Bug Applicator
Ecobotix’ bug applicator is a device for dispensing and distributing living organisms, such as different life-stages of beneficial insects and mites.
The device ensures that the distribution of the macrobials is performed in an
optimum way:
- Gentle (avoiding damage to the macrobials)
- Precise (allowing for highly accurate precision application
- Efficient (enabling for an even and completely automated delivery)
- Versatile (proving ability to use many types of formulations)
- Flexible (lightweight easily movable device)

- Continuous output rate in the range from 0.1…0.2…35 g/s
- Time to empty unit between 10 sec up to 1 hour.
- Precision of output rate down to 0.1 g/s
- Working width of 3.2m per unit.
- An external sensor on each unit ensures material is only dispersed where crops are present
- Work with up to 8 units in grouped parallel operation
- Select between individual programs for various type of macrobial formulations
- Self-adjusting flow control ensures correct dosing rates
- Works well with formulations based on vermiculite, buckwheat husks or corn cob grits
- Tolerant for formulations containing sawdust, bran, peat, wood chips, rice husks
- Tolerant for moist formulations
- Built-in cleansing function prevents any clogging of material
- Detachable blower head for easy maintenance or replacement
- Dynamic adjustment of gap opening ensures compatibility with a large span of particle sizes
- Vibration feeding ensures consistent flow even for formulations with relatively low flowability
- Gentle stirring of material prevents formation of bridges
- Battery monitoring with low-battery detection and alert via app
- Wifi-enabled control via EcoApp (Android, iOS*)
- Location based precision control of dosing by GPS/GNSS signal**
- Online log-generation and automatic documentation of performed treatments via desktop/app**
*Available for iOS only on request.
**Optional on request
- Ensure an accurate treatment of all plants – prevent pest hotspots
- Ensure a gentle distribution of the macrobials (avoid injuring or killing of beneficials)
- Easy moveable solution – cover large areas even with single or few units (cost reduction on hardware)
- Ensure a good working environment – avoid repetitive and strenuous work and limit exposure to allergens
- Ability to distribute wide range of macrobials – compatible with multiple formulations
- Achieve higher level of biological protection – avoid need for spraying of insecticides (up to 100%)
- Achieve more with less macrobials (potential material saving of more than 60%)
- Spend less time on treatments (potential time saving up to 80%)
- Container volume: 2,7L
- Total weight (mount and battery included): 6 kg
- Battery specs: LiPo, 3S, 11,1V, 22Ah
- Estimated battery time: 7,5 hours (full charge in 1½ hours)
- Connectivity: WiFi
- Materials: polylactic acid (PLA), polycarbonate (PC), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU)
