Pesticides used in home
    #8422502 -

I thought and thought and didn't know where to put this question, considered eth garden and science forum...anyways

This is related to potential health problems so bear with me

Ive been using safer soap, neem oil,garlic-pepper spray, predator bugs, ect to try and kill off spider mites.  Its been an endless battle and i can not win...impossible to get them all and the eggs.  they also seem to jump from plant to plant even thow i have them separated by plastic.




anyways onto my question, my greenhouse is one room away from my bedroom.  I also walk past it quite a bit.

my last effect to rid myself of spider mites is going to be spectrum hot shots

Ive heard there are the cats ass, but i don't know how harmful they are not only to me, but also to my pets.  Mainly a bird.

I'm really pissed off at these spider mites, Ive got to annihilate them once and for all   

but i need to know how harmful the pesticides are to me and my little bird friend

thx

i dont think theyre incredibly harmful, youre a grown individual, its not like youre exposing a developing body to them. Id say on a small scale level its probably ok.

i live in a house surrounded by at LEAST 10 tons of pesitcides and herbicides... at least youre not in my position :shrug:

Yeah, but they like to eat plants... and they don't stop... they keep going and going until the plant dies.

Vacuum the hallway as often as you can to suck up any eggs. Also consider wiping the bottom of your shoes with 'poison' as you enter/exit the room. Traps/poison around the windows and air vents also helps.

The one time that I got them, I found it almost impossible to get rid of them. I eventually ditched my grow, removing their food source, followed by a massive cleaning, then poisoning, then another cleaning. It is much easier keeping them away than getting rid of them once you have them.

Use a bug that will eat it..IE lacewings, predator mites..
