One More Dose Here for the Spider Mites

You can see that they spider mites survived. Those little white specs are the blasted things.

So I took the blasted plant back into the kitchen and blasted the blasted things off with some blasted water again. This time they better not come back!

  1. :O I hope it works this time! Maybe a spray of dish soap and water would help just to make sure you got rid of them. :)

  2. Hi Missy, Spider mites are the worst aren't they! Insecticidal Soap sounds like a scary insecticide, but it really is just soap and water. You can find it at stores like Home Depot in the garden section. You can also make a homemade version, as Tara suggests above, by mixing soap and water. I don't know the exact proportions, but if you google insecticidal soap, I am sure you can find a simple recipe. Spider mites will spread from plant to plant and so I would spray any plants you have, wether or not they are showing signs of spider mites.
