Customs seem to be hammering the post at the moment. id normally just say Attitude with guaranteed delivery. If Easties treats has something you want then just go thru him- no customs.

Turns out it's a "cyclamen mite" folks.

Turns out cyclamen mites are cunts

all mites are cunts.

True that, except for the mites that eat other mites, was thinking of ordering some but takes a few weeks to work.

This is a google image not mine. The arrow is pointing to their eggs. I am obviously not certain, but positive. I have been looking at the bastards for hours on end over the last few days. It also makes sense because a few weeks ago I got a cyclamen flower thing for me mum

@Bongsmoke420 spent a fortune on predator mites.

I think an IPM is a better solution.

Indeed, lesson learnt, slacked off for a couple weeks there and that's all it took

If going beneficial bugs you normally hit heavy infestations with some kind of insecticide whether natural or chemical (chem has longer hold off for bug release). If it where me I’d hit them a few times over a week with eco oil and may be something else then release 1-3 different types of bugs every 1-2 week's over a 6-12 weeks period. Ie knock them down and let the bugs clean up.

Thanks LL. Getting a bit excited with a HLG LED on the way, only to discover my seed stash from a few yrs ago was thrown out. I have some that are about 4yrs old stored safe and dry but not sure they'll take. No harm trying I guess, while I source some locally.
