This is quite good but several weeks on I’m still tackling spider mites on this plant not so effective as I’d hoped.

I had a spider mite infestation for quite a while, but didn't realise it. I thought normal spiders were just building cobwebs on my miniature rose plant, and the leaves were dry as it needed repotting. It was like this for months, gradually getting worse. However after repotting it and washing off the cobwebs it got even worse. After a quick Google search, I realised what the issue was, spider mites, but thought it was too late for my plant. All the leaves were dead and it was completely covered in the webs. I ordered this in a desperate attempt to save the plant. After treatment there were no leaves left, and I wasn't sure if the plant would make it. However a week later, new leaves have started to grow, and 2 weeks later, my plant is full of leaves again and looking healthy. Not a spider mite or cobweb in sight!

100% delt with the spidermite.... HOWEVER..... all of my plants now look like they are plastic/fake! This stuff leaves a horrid oily film on everything it touches. It ruins any velvety leaves. Makes all your pots and surfaces greasy so every spot of dust sticks to them and can clog up your sprayer. I have misted/sprayed my plants with water and wiped the leaves with water baby wipes repeatedly and 6 weeks later ..... shiny shiny shiny! A lot of the white areas on my variegated plants have also gone brown and mushy since using this stuff. An issue I have never had before! It does kill mites though!

The product works very well and gives the leaves a nice healthy sheen. It has also taken care of the spider mites I was facing with my plant. I would say if you have an indoor plant that you want to treat take your plant outdoors to spray it as if you get the spray on a table or glass it gets a bit messy to clean, but nothing soap and water can’t get rid off. Highly recommend this spray.

The product will make 4 litres of oily stuff that kills spider mites. Applied this stuff to my citrus trees which have the cursed mites making an early appearance. This stuff, like Trounce product, mixes with water and when applied with a garden sprayer as a fine mist goes a fair way. A few treatments every two to three days and mites are no more. I have checked several weeks on and I can not find any signs of mites, no tell take webs or yellowing leaves. If spider mites do return, I shall be buying more of this really good stuff. March 2021 Citrus trees suffering a massive loss of leaves: Having gone through overwintering in the cool lean too, lows of 8-10degC in 2020 with no issues, I am suspicious of the reason for the massive leaf drop that has occurred in recent weeks following spider mites treatment. It does also coincide with some low external temperatures and when I checked minimum temperature it was no worse than previous year. The lemon tree started first and then the orange followed suit about two weeks later following treatment. There are about 10 leaves currently now left on each. No spider mites detected on any of the fallen. Hoping the trees will recover and new leaf start to shoot this spring. I have read that leaf drop can occur in cold conditions and also when there are large swings in temperatures and these factors have also occurred. My small amount of knowledge and experience in keeping citrus has me doubting the use of this product on citrus for time being. Updates to follow. Both citrus seem to have reacted badly to this product. The orange more so, as the once healthy branches have died back. New shoots are appearing lower down on the main trunk. It is a similar storey with the lemon tree, not as bad as the majority of branches have survived with new shoots appearing but then it did not have multiple treatments. April 2021: Lemon tree is recovering and regeneration of what looked to be dead twigs are greening back up. Not as yet seeing this regeneration on the orange tree. June 2021: Happy to see my Albany pitcher plant is starting to recover from being sprayed with stuff. The orange and lemon tree have also recovered as in they have leaves. At some point they will start to flower and fruit again.

Got a red spidermite infection from an imported grafted plant. I wish I had stuck to seed and not imported plants. This stuff really does work. It is oily and sticky and you dissolve it in water, and then put it into a sprayer and spray the plant leaves You have to shake the sprayer often while using it to make sure it is mixed. I guess it only just dissolved in water and wants to settle out. It says not to spray on flowers. I could not avoid spraying flowers on my Million Bells, but they seemed not to mind. The bugs get stuck in the stickyness and cannot move to reproduce so soon die. I carefully rinsed some aubergines that had been sprayed and they dried clean. There was no taste so I do not worry about it on my vegs although I always rinse..

Buen insecticida, yo lo he usado particularmente para la araña roja, después de 3 aplicación hace que frene mucho la plaga, pero a mí al menos, no me la quita definitivamente. Es verdad que hay que dar muy bien por debajo de las hojas y en el tallo, ya que la araña deja sus huevos muy bien escondidos. Es el acaricida que más he usado pero no es definitivo, al menos en mi caso.
