Being a Noob, and not very experienced, I rarely give advice. But when it comes to no pest strips I have gained a little knowledge. I read what Oppie Yutts posted about them and tried them myself. I had Mites or Aphids or some other pest and used no pest strips and got rid of the problem in less than a week. Its not an Organic Pesticide, and I try to stay Organic, however pests can ruin everything and I recommend no pest strips.
