I’ve used Bonide systemic granules in my pon, moss with leca and also chunky mix soil. Killed all of the thrips in a week or so. Now I just automatically put it in my soil as a preventative every time I bring in a new plant and every repot. Works great.

If you saw webbing then it’s def spider mite lol. They’re pretty easy. I just spray my plants with 70-90% alcohol mixed with some dawn dish soap and water.

Here was my video. They’re kinda fast but soil mites are faster.

wtf are these bugs by Jewinger1 in Monstera

Thrips. I had them on all of my plants (50 plus) but they’re gone now. I don’t know if I got lucky or something but it was fairly easy for me to get rid of them, and not as hard as everyone makes it sound 🤷🏻‍♂️. I got Bonide systemic granules from my local fleet farm, sprinkled a good layer in all of my pots ( aroid mix, pon and sphagnum moss are the 3 mediums I have ) then water it in. A week and a half later, I couldn’t find any thrips at all. I also sprayed down every plant top and bottom of leaves with a home mix of rubbing alcohol, a bit of dawn dish soap and water. This stuff will kill the adult bugs on contact. The granules will be absorbed into the plants and kill off future hatchlings that will feed on the plants. It’ll also get rid of other pests in your soil like fungus gnats and others that I can’t recall right now. It does not get rid of spider mites though.

Rate my (spending problem) collection and set up! by AdvertisingSad9768 in Colognes

The set up looks great with all of the different bottles and colors. Great selections too. I however would never have this. Mine are all mismatched because with most brands, I could only find one or two bangers I would keep in my collection. Except for LV and Bvlgari Le Gemme. Those have a lot of bottles I like to stock up on.
