After you have taken the steps Jack has suggested, Run a fan pointed at your
plants for several hours a day. Mites and a lot of other bugs hate any kind
of wind, and this will discourage them from multiplying. Good luck. Dwayne

Hi all

On a recent inspection of my cacti in my greenhouse (kept at about
4degrees
min) i have spotted the evidence of fresh red spider mite attack! Help!
I
cant water the cacti with insecticide yet as they are still in their
'winter
dry period'.....so how do i stop the mites spreading ?

This is my first year with a greenhouse and i was trying to not use
chemical
warfair if possible.......guess that may have to change!

Any help will be gratefully appreciated, i dont want to loose many cacti!
