What can I use against spider-mites (they are eating my frangipani plants alive)?

and conventional insecticide seems to not have any effect

What can I use against spider-mites (they are eating my frangipani plants alive)?
Volk Oil or soap spray
Reply:soap spray works good. you can also buy a batch of ladybugs for your plants. they're not expensive at all.
Reply:Try Seven. It's a fine grey/white powder that is edible for humans and toxic for any sort of insect. :)








Good luck!
Reply:As a mater of fact I spayed for mites today! I have a commercial nursery and use Triazicide by Spectrum. check out this link http://www.spectracide.com/ProductCatego...


This stuff works great on ants as well. You can get it at Lowes or Home Depot for about $10. I use it on my blooming orchids with no damage to the flowers. I like this stuff as it takes out a wide variety of pests and you have no phytotoxic (Burning) to your plants.
