Mix 1 tblsp. of baby shampoo with 1 tblsp. of oil in a quart sized bottle and fill with water, shake and spray and smother your spider mites and many other insects, it also wahes off any insect poo that you may have as well as any dust that may settle on your plant(s) while indoors.

Thank you for your replies. Has anyone used Akari Mitacide? A little more pricey, but if its good, thats what counts. I bought some spray for white flies three years ago--- almost $400.00
YIKES !!!! NO more white flies in three years. Its these danged spider mites that are driving me crazy.
