HELP - SPIDER MITE
« on: July 31, 2006, 11:50:45 »
I've just been down the side of my house where I keep loads of plants/seedlings etc. for restocking and on close inspection I find that I'm infested with wretched spider mite.

I don't know what to treat this with anymore (as the EU have withdrawn most of the things we used to be able to get).  So, I would appreciate your help on this.

I know that you need an arachnicide for spider mite.

Please help, looking at the poor plants they are in desperate need of help

Thanks for the link, Tim.

The problem is quite serious as I've now found it in my garden and there is a serious infestation in one particular spot which I think is too far gone for the natural predators.

I think that I will try cutting the garden plants right back to ground level and hope that the rain showers get rid of some of them.

Then, next year, before the hibernating ones get going again, I'll get some of those you recommend ad see if it does the trick.

Thanks, again
