Stop Mites Forever

Ok here is the way I prevent and or eliminate mites.

NOTE: NOT FOR USE DURING LAST 30 DAYS

This treatment is a preparation of two products. This should be applied as a dip.

SAFETY FIRST: Wear protective gear and don't get on your skin or anywhere on you for that matter. This stuff doesn't play around.

Avid @ 1.2 mL/Gallon OR FloraMite SC @ 2.0 mL/Gallon
TetraSan 5 WDG @ 1 Gram/Gallon

To mix, fill dip container half way and add the granular TetraSan while mixing, then add the Avid or FloraMite while mixing. Check pH and adjust to 7.0.
Dip container: For small plants use a 5 gallon bucket, larger plants use a 30 gallon drum (my preferred).

DIPPING: Take plant and with your hand hold the dirt /main stem into the pot and turn upside down gently. Slowly submerge plant in dip tank up to the pot rim, gently pull it back out. Set aside and do next plant. After done dipping spray trunk of plant and topsoil as well as inner and outer pot.

This treatment is good for 28 days of protection. Use right before flowering cycle.

To maximize effectiveness use FloraMite as a rotational substitute for Avid. Avid is my preferred option when plants are too large to dip and sprayer must be used.

If spraying you must get undersides of leaves or there is little effect.

I like to dip clones using FloraMite/TetraSan. Plants going into flower get Avid/TetraSan.

Happy growing and down with mites!

Dude, imma try this out, ive been having some mite trouble, theres not alot but of course a few will turn into alot real soon, thanks for this discovery.

You won't be disappointed. After over 20 years of nothing actually working I learned of this while working at a dispensary here in Colorado. I have been using it since. As a preventative and to rid active infestations in multiple grows.

The TetraSan is an ovicide that stops eggs. In short it inhibits chiton formation, this weakens exoskeletons of hatching larvae so they die. Get good coverage and eggs will be rendered harmless.

Also stops fungus gnats if spraying top soil. Just spray topsoil after watering and give it a few days to work on them.

Thanks for the bump.

On side note, think it's the tetrasan that stops the fungun gnats. Just have to repeat treat and this stuffs too strong for that.

For fungus gnats I recommend Gnatrol.

Peace and happy growing!

I use captain jacks deadbug brew in conjunction with bonide spreader sticker and it wipes. Out everything ( for me)
I also bleach the room and do a re application a few weeks later. I don't follow up with neutralizing solution but I hear a light amount of molasses spray makes the spinosad break down
