Thanks Kay, Im only in my second year with a greenhouse and as yet have not
come across those problems, I don't like chemicals, so, if these problems
should arise what would you suggest? Mind you, I have to dismantle and
reassemble due to a house move during the summer, so it'll get a good
cleaning then...thats not to say I wont have the irritation before then,
your advise, as always would be welcome


Shannie, we use biological control in our green houses and it works
brilliantly. It's not cheap to start with but develops its own momentum.
It's important *never* to use sprays once you start using bio control,
though. Various companies advertise in The Garden and in other magazines,
I believe.

Google on "red spider" biological. I use greengardener.
