Microbial insecticides?

I am battling thrips and thinking of ordering some insecticides. I would like to stay away from the nuclear options and battle as safely as possible.

I am looking at ordering 2 insecticides to rotate with azasol and possibly an occasional azatrol spray. The options I am looking into are Grandevo, Venerate xc, PFR97, or liquid Met52.

I am battling thrips and would like to use these options as a preventative against mites (especially broad, cyclamen, hemp russet). If you have any experience or knowledge of the effectiveness of each product please tell me what worked or didn't work for you.

Thank you for your time and help.

Spinosad. One and done.

Although I still do a follow up.

Does Spinosad also help with battling mites? Pretty sure I have microscopic mites, based on stunted, curled apical tip growth.

Was thinking of rotating pfr97, met 52 liquid, grandevo, venerate xc, and azasol/azatrol.

Do you find conserve SC works better than the more lightly formulated widely available versions of Spinosad.

Thanks for your time and help.

OGBiowar has the Met52 fungus, the Botanigard fungus, several other things. -granger

Granger, thank you for the reply. I have tried og biowar both inside and outside on my veggie garden. I was not impressed by the results I achieved with it. I am looking for suggestions regarding other commercially available insecticides.

Thank you for your time and help.

How were you using it, and was it fresh? But Spinosad is all you need. Do a soil drench, and a foliar spray.

The ogbiowar was fresh, I began using it from the day I received it. I was drenching my soil with foliar, nute, and root. I was using foliar as a leaf spray from a pressurized pump sprayer. I achieved moderate control of leaf aphids, not very much control of whitefly, didn't really check for mites outside.
