Water that comes from the tap with a 100ppm or greater can leave noticable resdue on leaves when the water drys...

Misting plants is also a good way to disrupt bugs.. mites do not like misting..

Thanks for posting that PhillyKid. Good summary.

Every time I mist I use just a bit of neem in the water. The leaves are healty and shiny, and this MAY just be a coincidence, but I have never had a problem with mites even though I know they're around, I've seen them on my roses outdoors.
