Big trouble: mites

[IbogaProject]

10. A couple of ideas.

First do you have cats that you allow outside? That is often the vector for infection. You will need to be very careful next go around if you allow cats to go outside that is the primary vector for infestation. It is a very difficult problem as those mites are normally predatory and they just happen to get addicted to the fluid in the plants and since they aren't evolved to be in any balance with it they get out of control. Getting the humidity up to 50-55% makes it harder for the. Neem extract is good, but this late in the season or your indoor cycle it's too late to use as it will add a bad aroma and flavor. To treat, Sesame oil in water with a little dawn and lemon juice in a spray bottle works. Another idea is brew a tea of poultry seasoning and cloves with one or two drops of dawn, put that into a spray bottle.
