RevRFB, i know what you are talking about with the battle but, you should nt be smoking floramite. Maybe i miss understood your post. I would not spray this with in 30 days of harvest. This is a nasty chemical and i copied this from the MSDS for floramite. I hate these fucks as much a you but don't risk your safety and health. Your much better off smoking/eating a mite than smoking or eating this shit. Be safe

So in the neverending mite fight, I'm moving to phaze 3 of operation "shocking, aww" and have some battle bugs on order...

The ones I'm getting are called "roof mites" (in dutch) or "Phytoseiulus persimilis" (in latin). Can anyone tell me about these?

What I'd really like to know is... when I unleash them, will they come out raring to go like a swarm of killer bees? or will they be all dosile from travelling and need dumping out of whatever they arrive in. I ask as I'd like to use them on 3 areas, not just the one, so if it's crazy mad swarm effect, then I need to be prepared to jam the lid shut quickly...

Secondly is... I've read that once they cant find any food (spitermites), they turn on eachother and so theres not much left behind. Is that right? only if they're more likely to crawl inside my buds and die and then go pop in my spliff, I'd rather not use them in that area.

Third thing I'm wondering is, how long do they take to do they're business and how do I treat the area while they're sorting the mites? Should I keep it sealed so they don't escape? (no exhaust?) or anything else I need to know?


thanks for any pointers
