Nelso, I have to concur withj L3v3r on the no pest strips...get mine at Lowes or Home depot....I keep a new one on hand....as I use a grow tent and exhaust my tent to a flue, I don't 'saturate' my living area...they've worked for me for years.....
After a massive spidermite infestation in the summer, I killed almost all my ladies using tobacco/ alcohol mix so be real careful with that stuff!....I also used diatomateous earth as maintenance....obtained some 'LadyBug Killer' organic spray....so I've got mine under control....
Those fruckers are tough sometimes,and I found they absolutely LOVE northern lights .....
Short term, get ya some no pest strips....leave'em in for a few days....vac out all the webbing etc....re-insert the strips if needed....yes it's a pesticide but if yo dry and cure your weed well, the pesticide will disipate....

im with them on the filtering your air coming in...... if your in the woods thats the issue is that your vegetation is the best around to the spidermites. i also think tents even in grow spaces are a must honestly. they isolate issues and are easy to clean.

Thanks for getting the info for me. I appreciate your effort.

I'm gonna throw a filter on the incoming air. That totally makes sence to me. After I stack firewood I will harvest the last seed plant. Let the spraying begin.

My tank is up and running again. Do I still have the spider mites? Only time will tell. It has been strange having nothing growing at my place for a month while I dealt with the problem. Oh well. I sprayed a whold can of Raid Spider Killer in the rooms. Wow what a lot of pyretharines gave me that numb mouth pins and needles feeling like then you bath your dog with flea shampoo. Washed down the tank and room with bleach. Rinced the tank out. I hung one of those Ortho pest strips over my tank. I have started a bunch of seeds to try for a new grow. I sure hope I have beat of the speder mites. Wish me luck.

Good luck! I'm wondering if the Ortho pest strips work as well as the hot shot pest strips
Did you buy your pest strips at Home Depot?

 

[Nelson]

Close I got them at Home Hardware at our local small town I live near. Closest Home Depot is about 35 miles away. Just simpler and saved the gas. I still hate doing mailorder except for seeds.

Thanks Nelson.
I read the details on Ortha and it seemed that it was only for pests with wings

It has pyretharines and that sure kills a lot of crawlies. I don't like being around the stuff. These other insect strips might have some other effective agent in them. I will go out of my way to order them if I see any trace of affids returning to my plants. I sure wish I didn't have to go through the ordering process it is always such a pain in the ass to me. My local grow supplier other than the hardware store carries nothing in hang up products. Do you order in hang up strips?

Thanks Nelson.
