If the mites are sprayed with a warm soapy solution it will kill the
adults but not the eggs. Spray under the leaves. Repeat every 3-4
days. You will also need alternate with another product as mites
become resistant to any one product.

I'm having success with the systemic insecticide on the impatiens in pots on
the porch. Those in the ground are impossible to spray under the leaves.
It's so late in the season I'm going to let those in the garden just die
off.

I will start to alternate with neem oil and Bug-B-Gon this weekend.
