Re: spider mites and other creepy, sticky bugs WE DON'T LIKE

Craig -

Another thing you can use for various bugs is Ortho Fire Ant killer (Powder 
form).  My mother-n-law, who a very advid orchid grower, introduced me to 
this product.  You simple put 1T per 1 Gal of water and spray.  The benefits 
to this product over some that contain oil is that (sometimes) the oil is 
harmful to your plant....for example ferns resent the oils and some tropicals.

I use a hand full of various treatments depending on what plant I am 
treating....including some of Jerry Bakers stuff.  One thing to remember is 
that if you are using anything that contains oil is to spray in the evening, 
after the harshness of the sun has gone.


Just a little tid bit of information
