Help me please
You can see them with a magnifying glass. If your eye sight is good, you may be able to see them without. I can't, but I'm as blind as a bat. There's a period in their life when they make webs, but your REALLY infested before then. There's a name brand called safer insecticidal soap. Its exactly what is sounds like; natural plant derived insecticide in a soap. Very effective. There are many insecticides on the market for use on house plants. Since the growing season has ended, your best bet would be to call a florist & see what they carry for house plants. Unless of course, you have a grow supply store in your area that caters to what we grow. (Probably not) You may have to call several florists to find anything. You could google 'safe 'soap', maybe it could be found on amazon.com. Because insects develope resistance to insecticides, new ones are constantly being introduced, so you will have to read lables. But I'm betting you can find a florist near by who can help you. Most likely one who carries house plants. All don't. Some only deal in fresh cut flowers & a few dish gardens. But whoever you call, just tell them you need something for your dwarf orange tree. When you brought it inside for the winter, it exploded with spider mites. I'd been a florist since the 70's. That explanation won't be questioned. If they want description, say spots & webbing. But if you can, post a pic just to make sure. Might be a good idea to 'wash' all your plants. Sorry you may have to search. If it was still the growing season, you could find 'safe soap' almost anywhere, even walmart. (They didn't even have potting soil when I looked last month). Hope this helped.
P.S. as far as the soap bath goes, any gentle dish soap will do, my favorite is Joy. Non-ultra, old fashioned Joy. 1tablespoon into a full spray bottle of water.catbuds Reviewed by catbuds on .
