New Miticide

[Dr. Buddington]

Any Integrated Pest Management strategy starts with prevention. As for mites, I would use mechanical means of removal period. Stick a 1.5" or 1.25" ABS pipe on the end of a shop vac. Glue an end cap on one side and drill a few hundreds of small (1/8") holes along the entire length of the ABS pipe. There, now you have a homemade mite vacuuming wand! It will remove webs and mites. Do it in combination with monitoring if the pest population so you can vacuum up the newly hatched mites before they lay more eggs.
Just make sure to empty the wet/dry vac outside your growing space, lol.

Indeed. If you can prove you have a farm business and a pesticide certification..

pretty soon the mites will be immune to it just like flora mite and avid.

Lots of bozos applying stuff at triple the application rate instead of using common sense and to rotating pesticides

Mites dont get immune to forbid. Forbid isnt like many other mite killing products. The forbid makes it so that they can't eat the plant and they know it. 3 days after spraying, the mites are still on the plant but they are starting to bail because they haven't had a bite to eat in 3 days. Within 5 days they are all gone and won't return for atleast 6 weeks. Spray your house plants with forbid too because the mites will be hungry and looking for any other food source. Forbid is available on ebay and the smallest bottle goes a long ways. Only a few drops are required per spray bottle full. And forbid is 100% effective 100% of the time and only takes 2 min to apply because its a translamient.

Van Isle super mites are already getting very immune to Forbid after a year or so...and vapona strips. Avid and Floramite have been useless for a long time now. good old neem, sm-90 and bug-b-gone does the trick, to a degree. I made a hot pepper, spices, etc suspension that worked well and made room smell like pie from all the cinnamon

Your not using forbid correctly if you feel mites are getting used to forbid. Forbid doesnt kill the mites. Instead it makes the plant dehydrate them to death if they eat it. Maye you just need to be more through? But if thats true then you should move and burn everything before those bugs spread.

Have you ever read the label ?

 

[barefootseeds]

preaching and practicing irresponsible pesticide usage bro science like that is the reason why we have immune super mites in bc.

I believe not having them introduced to your garden is the best form of pest control. I have also found, collecting elite cuts, you collect elite pest. Quarantine is mandatory. Peace GS

[Buds Bundy]

The reason predator mites like Persimilis don't work proparly is because they have a certain humidity/temp range which is not ideal when you are flowering weed. On top of that 90% of growers are not gonna be able to keep those environmental requirements for persimilis to thrive in.
