We're having a terrible drought where I live and spider mites have been are
nightmare. I've sprayed my large number of inpatients with several
insecticides including a systemic and these pests keep coming back. Today I
bought Neem Oil to try. has anyone had a problem using this product on
flowers such as impatiens, orchids, geraniums etc?
Also black-leg rot is killing off many of the geraniums and impatiens. I'm
about to give up for the summer...... :-(
I know that spider mites hate water. In the beginning of the
spidermite period I used to shoot my roses with a strong spray of
water. It knocks off quite a bit. The sunspray oil worked but also
burned in summer, maybe Neem oil would do the trick. There were a few
other things we used for spider mites but I hate chemicals and prefer
non-toxic.
