Pam Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 Mite Rid is the best stuff out there for spider mites other than predator mites. But it sounds like you need to act faster. Try washing the plants off to remove the mites until you can kill them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep this is the best there is , rids them over night ,,,,,, trade name is Vertimec , active ingredient L/Bacmectin ,,, about $300 per 5 ltrs from a produce source ,,, they make a killing under the hydro counter in 10ml viles .

Pam Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 Yeah Mite Rid is Neem based, but works much better. I can't get it here, have to send for it from there, but I wouldn't use anything else. The thing is to act fast with those nasty buggas because they can kll off a mature plant in a matter of days once they take hold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
