 Also, check this out - put a duster brush on the wand. Dip the brush in soap/water, insecticide, whatever, and vacuum the undersides of leaves!! Vacuum the little cute tiny larvae straight to hell!! Bwahaha!!    Cut off some bristle length if you need to, but don't over-do, or you'll suck leaves off the plants. Re- dip the brush a lot- that way, bugs that get caught in the bristles die anyway. Afterwards, soak the brush in soapy water to make sure. Then wipe the underside of the leaves, if you want, with some soap or insecticide or whatever. Hope it works!!

| Crazytrain, please get out of my head and stop posting what I was just thinking.....  And, no, I never snorted a line of ants, tho I once smoked a bowl of Cheerios. Long story, but I almost burned down my kindergarten classroom.

| I've been having insect problems for the first time as well. Mites in both of my rooms and white flies outside my rooms... I've started a spray regimen w/ some organic insecticidal soap. Hopefully I can keep it under control. It's nice to know that some of the best growers here have had their share of bug problems as well. Between grows I plan on fogging both rooms and wiping everything down w/ a bleach solution.
