What are the main indoor pests to watch out for?

[ATrueBlackThu]

Before there's a problem i need to buy things to take care of it. Sierra natural science spider mite spray seems to be a big seller for spider mites but what else should I be picking up? I also have a fly strip in my tent which has done a great job so far although I do have a few gnats still buzzing around, no worms in the soil that I could ever see though.

Sns 217, Sns203 and Sns209 should so you for bug issues. Avoid spraying the 217 on flowering buds tho.

Thanks, I'll order them as soon as I'm able.

When you say that do you mean anywhere at all or just the buds? Because I'm starting to get gnats pretty bad, mostly on the soil so am I safe to spray on the soil and very bottom of the main stem?

Use a simple mosquito dunk for fungus gnats. That's the easiest way.

I'm not even sure what a mosquito dunk is tbh. I actually already have two sample kits from them so I'd prefer not to spend anymore if I don't have to

I'd go with a soil drench with the sns 203 if you have it. There is a link on directions of use

It's been about a week since the last watering so now would be a good time. Thanks

Just want to post one final time in this thread

I used the sns 203 Like you said, as a Soil drench, and it worked great. All the gnats are dead, even found them all over the top of the plant too. Thanks for the help, I'm a customer now for sure.

Glad it worked well for you. I use the 203 as a regular drench every couple of weeks. Prevention is better than cure.
