3ast winter I had 1500 lady bugs in the basement garden, but none made it up the stairs. They munched on the aphids very nicely, and then hid out in the rocks in the pots. It seemed after I would spray or water with Bayers, they would die, a few at a time.

Last nite After the forbid, I dusted with a greenish powder that has pyrethins in it. I hope that thwarts what ever it is eating little holes in my leaves, I looked for small snails and slugs, no luck finding any yet.
This little Isabella tip is rooted, but It sure looks like mites on it as well. It is stuck in a lime zinger EE pot, so that maybe why I have mites. Those EEs seem to carry them I think.
