Two things here--Green Cleaner has soy oil to smother living mites and iso to kill the eggs. No need to switch sprays! No living thing I know of can adapt to suffocation and dehydration!!
People swear by just about anything...If I get them this year I'll be trying out the mighty wash. Ive heard great things about it
I agree. Everyone is always pushing product. But for me, I haven't ran into any pests(yet) that could handle a strong dose of pyrethrn. So for me that would make it worth trying. At this point it may be worth considering just culling any infested plants if you still have other healthy ones. That way you can focus on prevention for the others.People swear by just about anything...
Considering permethrin failed for me, I have doubts about an oil spray that has pyrethrins.
I'm currently trying enzymatic sprays, though they're too expensive and probably home brewable.
I live in Hood River Valley. It’s home to the largest pear harvest in the nation, apples, peaches, cherries, blueberries, vineyards! it’s an AG valley in the Cascade Mountains, so yes I am familiar with orchards.Two things here--
A. My plants hate green cleaner.
B. Oh yes they can.
They don't evolve physical defenses against these things, but behavioral ones.
Are you familiar with things like pesticides triggering outbreaks of mites in orchards? The mites that behaviorally hang out in the highest regions get selected for, and outbreaks that destroy the top canopy occur.
It's not all bad for me, I'm winning this war. I'm *never* infested, but they are present.I agree. Everyone is always pushing product.
