Spider mites attack
Hi guys! I was watering my plants and I noticed that my Harmony was looking dulled and not her usual self. I looked closer and noticed it was an infestation of spider mites π
I read somewhere to use neem oil sprays but they always came back and I lost 2 plants to due these bugs this past year.
Do any of you have any other methods or products that might help get rid or better yet repel these jerks? #PestControl #InSearchOf #gregsavesplants

I'm sorry you're dealing with bugs.
The last time I had an issue with spider mites on my cast iron plant, I took it outside, hosed it off well, and changed the soil.
Frequently I spray all my pest-inviting plants with Natria insecticidal soap. It seems to keep things at bay for me.
Make sure you separate that plant from other plants if you can. Good luck!

I got these granules on Amazon for around $9. They protect the plant for 8 weeks after application. I had fungus gnats, soil mites and spider mites on different plants and so far no bugs since 02/02! You just sprinkle on the soil according to the directions and water as usual. You will want to hose them off first. For spider mites they donβt like water so maybe mist every few days too. Most of my plants are tropical so I havenβt had any issues. Hope you are rid of them soon!
