MITE MASSACRE

Anyone use mite massacre? I was thinking about spraying it for preventive maintenance against bugs and mold.Any thoughts?

Simple h2o2 works great. Byproduct is h2o. Check out PK Industries YT videos which explains how using microbes, and aminos will ward off bugs and disease

I had no problems. Then I left a cup of milk in my room going bad.
Suddenly I had fruit flies and fungus gnats.

Just a few. I got rid of the food source and sprayed my plants soil with hydrogen peroxide.

Next day there were dozens of gnats flying around my plant and the lights.

So I hung a fly tape strip in the grow box and next day it was covered in a few dozen gnats.
Have only seen one or two occasional ones since.

Another "oil" based product...blah. Won't work as a preventive - it's a contact killer.....as for the mold "prevent". You'll have to apply it too often to make it effective..

If your room is clean, and kept that way.....Why do a prevent? It's costing you money and time. Your putting something on your plant you have no "need" to....

Always remember that alcohol, melts the wax's and esters that "hold" a trichome together.....melts the thing away.......It's got alcohol in it....

If you really want to spray a "preventive" substance around. Mix up a weak pyrethrin mix and spray at every crack and doorway that a bug could get in. Even though the "killing" power will fade in a day or so. It leaves a scent that repels many bugs - including mites....apply every 2 weeks or so....

PM. Effective prevents are things like 18 hr brewed AACT or Serenade. They last about 2 weeks. Horsetail grass tea is another one....This, the plant likes too....

I still see "prevention" as being clean and controlling temp and RH swings.....
