So I got this to take care of spider mites and I’m pretty sure I got the wrong one… also the warning labels on this baby are disturbing. Do I need a different one to spray houseplants?

Will neem work on spider mites if it’s not a bad infestation

Yes neem oil will work on fungus and insects. Just make sure you wash your plant well before consuming

9sNeem isn’t as effective where I live. I like to make my own insecticidal soap with Castile bronners peppermint soap, water, and spinosad. Give it a shot. Works pretty well with spider mites

Where do you live? Also, yay wow. This is the best! I have no idea what spinosad is but I’m not sure why I didn’t think of peppermint oil. What’s are the ratios?

Also, just checked out your plants for the first time and #%!*$ that’s a boatload of awesome plants. GG! (Heads up, your aglaonema comes with a tiny plastic cage around its roots. Mine was in a bad way until I removed that bit. Then it FLOURISHED after a very brief shock.

That is the stronger version of Captain Jack’s Deadbug Brew which is great. They both use spinosad instead of neem oil. It’s great, I’ve had spider mites before and neem oil does nothing to stop them in my experience. This stuff did though. Just don’t inhale it and maybe spray it outside the house.
