Hey bro, do you had to deal with mites on tomatoes/capsicums? What do you use to get rid of the mongrels?
Not sure if you ended up going the pesticides route, but I’ve been using a $40 ebay steam gun for my aphids. It seems to clear them off pretty well but does mean a bit more maintenance unfortunately.
Why is this video so low on view’s & comment’s ????? Dose no one get pest or do people just not want to admit they get pest ????? I personally just had aphids wipe out a big chunk of my indoor starts AND it’s still freezing temperatures out side grrrrrrrrr it happens almost every spring = the aunt’s are early this year to PLUS last summer the aunt’s weren’t dyeing with my usual borax & hunny mix so I tried several different borax mixes & became convinced my aunts have become wise to not touch borax SO obviously I have a major infestation that I don’t know how to deal with = I’m throwing fits & spraying cans of raid on & around things YES it kills the plants & aunts & aphids but any plants that have lived threw it is looking better then it has in the last 5 years of fighting aphids & aunt’s = yes they go hand in hand that’s why soap spraying every day hasn’t worked grrrrrrrrr I don’t know what to do & I don’t want to give up gardening but these bug’s are winning & I’m not finding a commercial chemical for garden aunt’s & aphid infestation ?????? All the usual remedies are no longer working ?????????
I’ve been told any insecticide using Dipel is good as it has no with holding period. Bunnings sells one called "Nature’s Way" by Yates.
