Hi All,
My indoor grow spot is a second bedroom. A month or two ago I had a brutal spider mite infestation, and I lost the clones I had in there. I left the room closed off once the battle with the mites was lost, and emptied out all of the pots, soil, etc. and tossed it all. Since then I have set off a couple Doktor Doom bombs 12 days apart (today was the 2nd bomb). I do not see any signs that the mites are still around, but I am afraid to start a new grow and end up infested again if they are still in the room or house.
How can I tell? I know the yellow test strips attract all sorts of bugs, but they don't seem to attract the spider mites. Any ideas on how I can be sure they are gone before I invest the money and time into starting another grow?
Thanks!
