Default What is best for spider mites

What is most effective for spider mites on the Impatience plant?


Spider mites hate water spray. If you spray/mist the plant daily for
a week they will leave. Cover the pot soil with aluminum foil while
spraying so you don't saturate the plant's roots. Then you can mist
the plant 2x a week. A plant in a south or west window is most
vulnerable to spider mite attack.
