Trips - help needed

Spinosad wont kill your predator bugs, at least not many of them + its organic, all these other ways are dumb and ineffective. The predator bugs at best will keep the population down, but never actually get rid of it.

Neem is ordered on ebay - hope it comes fast.
Thx, yes its ppp from Nirvana. Wanted some seed plants also to try to find something special or just nice.

-Mr Celcius
Spinosad - couldnt find any...

Hope the neem oil will do the trick.

Do you guys suggest I give em a turn on Insectsoap tomorrow, and trim buttum-most-attacked-leafs n branches? and then the neem as soon as it comes...

I like the idea that the oil comes from another plant only.

Thanks again

-Jokercow - do you mean that I should spread out the envelopes over the plants - loosely?

yep, that what I meant. I believe there is some vermiculite in the bags with the beasts, spread it all over.

You definately have thrips...

i have found spinosad on ebay...shipping worldwide.

Trust me my friend. I made the thrips 101 for a reason. I found THE solution. Spinosad is 100% effective. It is omri organic and it degrades in 2 weeks, so you can apply within a few weeks of harvest if needed.

1 application of this stuff and your thrips are gone for good. Seriously...all bugs are easily treated if you use the right treatments. Neem is ok, pyrethrins are ok, soap is not bad, etc..Spinosad is the answer for thrips.

Agree 100% with the spinosad. Just ended a thrip problem with it myself.

I used a product named Monterey Garden Insect Spray at the rate of 1/2 Tablespoon/pint of water every couple of days until the thrips were no more.

spinosad is perfect... for pretty much any insect. Thing about the stuff is, its toxic upon spraying but 10x more toxic when they eat the plant material with it sprayed on. Its OMRI listed, so its organic and deals with spider mites as well.

Greenlight makes a spinosad and then Monterey Garden Insect Spray are the two brands found in the states.
Absolutely go with spinosad. the stuff is AWESOME!!!!! I personally used the Monterey Garden insect spray and the fuckers were gone in 2 days, and never returned. :joint:

Good Luck!
