A few days ago I recieved a Dionaea muscipula B52 plant division and saw tiny red dots but I disregarded them. Today I was observing them closely and saw a couple moving and long story short, they are spider mites. So far I have been removing them manually with a wet Q-tip. I also collected some ladybugs on the plant, but they didn't really do much.
Anyway, I read to use neem oil or Garden safe miticide. Unfortunetly Home depot did not carry and of the two, and everything else was 99% *Other Ingrediants. I came across this:
http://www.amazon.com/Organocide-Insecticide-Fungicide/dp/B001CJ6764
Organocide. Couldn't find any sure answers on if it's safe or not. Active ingredient by weight is 0.10% sesame oil. Inactive ingredients are 1.84% fish oil, 0.06% lecithin, and 98.00% water. To me it sounded like it will work. Before I go and test it out on some typical VFTs, does anyone know if this is safe?
Thanks,
