Uh, even the chemicals aren't a guarantee of success.
Who said to use the Bayer? I tried it first, didn't do a thing. And that is the common theme in all these threads on all these forums started on root aphids--no one treatment seems to work for everyone.
No, not a fungicide. Fungicide=fungus killer. This IS a fungus, a fungus that attacks and kills root aphids.
Have you cleaned out your entire growing area and treated that as well? If you don't, the problems will continue to reoccur. Electrical outlets, corners, nooks, crannies, lights, ANY place a teeny tiny little bug could possibly hide in likely has a bitch flyer hiding in it, and she must be killed.
Met52 is Metarhizum anisopliae Strain F52 (thus the moniker).

Met52 is a fungus, not a fungicide. Just clarifying.Use the met52 biofungicide. I had a round or two that i couldn't get through a flowering cycle , but now just apply the met52 pellets sparingly from the time they are clones up to the bigger pots , and i've seen like 3-4 adult flyers since , but they're all dead or rendered immobilized by the fungus. Plants aren't affected anymore by pests . Try it , you won't be dissapointed.
^ I might have to implement that MEt 52 into my IPM for these damn things. So it's a fungicide instead of a chem? Glad to hear that, I will have to look into it a little more.
