    Getting rid of SPIDER MITES on a budget....

    Okay were do I start... I had two CHEMDAWG cones that were infested with SPIDER MITES so I took them out of my growroom/bathroom and treated them with a insectacide by BAYERS and I didnt see anymore mites...I left them outside and planted them in the garden at my new house. I have about 10 other plants and some are infested with mites now. I picked up a hot shot NPS... Ive heard they are real good for plants if there in veggie stage... But the thing that gets too me is do I put the fan on low away from my plants or no fan..... I know the vapors have to penatrate so I went with my gut and left the fan off.....Was that a good idea....

    I have cetral air going rite now and think I will be leaving it on til I take the strip out....

    Does anyone or any of my buddies have any input on this one thanks...:thumbsup:

    no not two weeks to long. no more than a week.i have sucess with them the first 3 days make sure you turn your fan off as to completely fumigate the room i say 3 days as you will have hatchers and you want to kill them too.them run your show as always leave them in for a couple of days after that.pull them out and stick them in a ziploc bag and reapply them at the light change as this will bring the ones out of the dirt that ran and hid.i also neem my dirt at this time also(just to fuck their reproductive system) and when they come out the vapes get them dead.NO MORE DEVIL BUGS YEA.hope this helps

    go to walmart or the grocery store. look for bedding spray. it is used to get rid of lice, but it works for spider mites as well. it uses pyrehrum which is a compund made from chrysanthemum plants. its dissepates quickly with bright light. make sure not to breathe in the vapor. spray well, top and bottom.

    is it safe, yes. i've used it on my plants to get rid of thrips and also in my snakes cages for spider mites. it's the same ingredient in dr. doom and the like and even at the grocery store shouldn't cost you more that $6 a can which should last for a bit.

    make sure to spray, then wait a few days and spray again, a few more then once again. this will make sure you get all the eggs.

    you can also clean your area with a 5% bleach to water solution.

    good growing!
