Re: Spider Mites!!!

My dad was a nurseryman for many years and his advice on spidermites was
that they hate water.  Everyday (at least once a day) spray the plant (and
especially the undersides of leaves) with a strong spray of water:  knock
as many mites as possible off the plant.  I've used this advice and had
good luck.

Subject:        Spider Mites!!!

I had thought I was just lax in my fertilizing when my beans, cucumbers and
zucchini started yellowing out... now upon closer examination they are
COVERED
with mites, and the mites have spread to some of my flowering vines
(moonflowers and hummingbird vine).  I sprayed with insecticidal soap, but
I
think it's too late...do I need to pull everything out and replant?  What
tactics can I use against these little pests?  I prefer organic approaches,
if
there are any that work.

Thanks to all for the help I've received in the past...really made this
first
year a big success!! 50+ pounds of tomatoes so far...I've been canning for
weeks now!

Thanks again,
