David,
No, I havent tried them but I am just about too. I have lots of plants in my
flat (= apartment for all those in the US!) where I am more reluctant to go
spraying insecticides around (my flatmates complain.....). So I figure
Phytoseiulus should be the answer. I have a number of commercial growers as
friends so should be able to get a sample from them to try. The thin leaves
of Remusatia in particular seem to be exactly to the red spider's taste!
Anthuriums fortunately dont seem to suffer as much.
Regards,
Geoffrey
