I have several plants infected with the two-spotted spider mite.
Three kinds of Dracaena and two kinds of Aspidistra. I've been
checking other plants with 10X magnification. The infected plants are
in large heavy pots making it impractical to be moved in and out of
the house for frequent hose sprayings.

I enclosed each plant in plastic, sprayed Raid inside the bag, and
sealed it up for 2 days. I plan on repeating this procedure in 10
days, as that is the life cycle of the spider mite. Has anyone tried
this with success?
