Does anyone else have the problem that as soon as it gets warmer and
sunnier red spider mites attack their lemon trees? I only have one
viable spot in my flat for the trees. This is a window niche in the
living room next to the sofa so I'd rather not use the oil-based
deterrent I was recommended, nor poison sprays. I regularly spray the
trees with water and sometimes lug them under the shower. This sort
of keeps the mites under control but doesn't eliminate them. These
lemons were two of the first things I ever grew from pips so I hate
things harming them.
I'd be really grateful for any suggestions.

Thanks

Deborah
