Spider mites

Opie How long has it been since you used this stuff?
I guess if you've been threw a couple crops since then it definately worked.
I hope it works for me. I hate those things. They always come back.

Jdog: I think I am on my 5th crop since using the pest strips. Still no sign of mites.

Image Reaper: Yes, the strips are not safe, like most of the strong non-natural pesticides. That is probably why they work. I suggest you only use them in your grow room, and only for the few days it takes to get rid of the mites. You may want to consider just going though the torture of controling them with natural methods if you are trying to have kids. The toxic chemicals may reduce sperm count and other stuff. Who knows all the bad stuff. I do know it will kill the mites for good.

Those pest strips are the best I found them about a year ago when someone mentioned it on overgrow and will never go back. I recommind them to anyone that has to battle these little bastards...

I read the package on them and it even said safe to use in cabinets just that you "shouldnt" use them in areas that are constantly occupied. Im off to the store to buy some now!

Opie...I totally agree with your take on all this. but, keep in mind, that we want people to take all this advice and weigh it using common sense. We don't have to convince others, that our way is the only way.

Great job of sharing; All. peace, latewood

Avid kills mites dead. I would only use it on plants that are in veg. But it will kill them permanently. All the other remedies that were mentioned here did not work for me. I had way too much ventilation in my room for the no pest strips to work. Avid is a continual miticide. So it will kill when you spray and continue to kill for a couple months. So once again, this is not natural and if you are concerned about the chemical route do not use this. If you get tired of having mites, this will get rid of them completely.

I have used lady bugs in the past as
a all natural pest control. But they do
breed and spread thru out the
rest of your house. LOL

I have had the no pest strip in place for <24 hrs and the bug population is down at least 75%.. will see better when the lights come on in a couple hours. It has a very unpleaseant smell tho.. glad it will be gone in a couple days.

you have to keep it for a couple weeks, due to the hatchlings...mmmoooooorrrrahaahhahhahah
Can you say, "Hatchlings"?
