So I just got back from my five-day vacation. I go check out my eight outdoor plants and the leaves have some bite marks through them. I checked on the leaves and I can see a few adults and eggs. I went to the local nursery and got some ladybugs and I also ordered some Aza Max which will be here tonight. Any tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated!

Unfortunatly growing outdoors you will run into a few bug problems but usually most won't be a big problem.Just apply your AzaMax as soon as you can to both top and underneath the leaves and follow the directions on how often to apply,then just keep an eye on them for awhile and hopefully it will help.

Will the azamax totally rid me of spider mites?

It's an organic insect control so you may have to apply it a couple times but only useing it will tell.

Now should I do foliage spray and soil drench with the azamax? Or just foliage spray

I would get a cheap spray bottle and just spray them,preferably in the evening out of the sun just before dark and top and underneath the leaves and also a little on the soil.See how this works and let us no.

So I let the lady beetles much out for a day.

Than today I sprayed down the plants with my AZAMAX! Hopefully it works good!

..those aren't spider mites, waaaay too large,.. no signs of mite damage either, they don't eat holes into leaves, they suck sap,... that looks like an aphid larvae on the underside, still not the munchers though,.. that could be caterpillars or earwigs most likely,....
