Spider Mites, did I get the right thing to get rid of em?

plants do not absorb the active ingredient in HS NPS....i know there is someone who can explain the science of it but basically as long as it is not in the soil for the roots to absorb it will not get in the plant...but it does kill most of the pests :thumbsup:

The Dichlorvos in the control strip is highly volatile and will be gone within a few days of drying/curing after harvest, assuming you don't dry/cure in the same room as the strips.

As for it getting in soil and entering through the roots, the molecule is too big to freely pass through the root plasma membrane. You would need a severe wound to the roots or you would need some major ionic imbalance to force it in via osmosis.
