Calling all those with Green Thumbs

I'm really sceptical about an infestation inside the house of books and furniture!

You do have to give special attention to other plants though cos they can get easily infested with the same mite but furniture........really haven't heard of anything simillar!

The mites thrive on sap and are indeed defined as sap-suckers but I cannot visualise what they can suck out of my wordrobe or books. I checked my book again for reference and it says the following:

'Spider mites deslike a humid atmosphere. Once you've used the chemical control, regular misting to create humid atmosphere will please the plant and deter the mites'

Since you've used an organic pesticide not a chemical one I would suggest that you spray it every day for 10 to 14 days so with the pestricide to remove any mites and possible eggs that might hatch after you think the problem is solved.

After the problem is solved do give it some close check ups every now and then to be sure you have entirely solved the problem.

LOL No worries about other plants. I only have one other plant and it is planted in the yard FAR FAR away from my rose bush. I don't have plants because I can't keep them alive lol.
