Default Re: Spider mite "primer"

I use the Sandy Method (recommended to me by Sandy here on B.o): water (think she said a gallon, but I don't really measure things...just toss it together LOL) + 1 tablespoon of suave coconut shampoo + 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Put this in a spray bottle and thoroughly douse every portion of the leaves top/bottom. Repeat in a week or so and as needed after that. I haven't seen spider mites for MONTHS until recently I saw some small webs (but no damage) and retreated....nothing since.
