I would suggest LadyBugs. They are your best defense, and works as a VERY effective 'first blow', then knock 'em with the SNS. Here is a fellow grower that I recommended the use of LB's to defeat his red mites infestation. Within the day he saw little to no mites, and by a few days later he had a hard time trying to spot the mites. HERE is a link to his journal
Reg, the ladies are looking wonderful. You seem to have left out Rachel in this weeks update though
@cajun, i totally agree with you mate, the mites spread so quick, within days they have taken over the place, i just hope the sns products work when the time comes, they worked perfect for the fungus gnat problem i had, i used the sns products twice and not seen a fungus gnat or since, not even seen anything crawling around in the soil.
hopefully the product you got works, just remember you need to break the life cycle so more than one treatment will be necesarry, it also depends how the product works as some kill the mites but not the eggs so you need to keep using it until all the eggs have hatched then you should be ok,
