I'm growing hydro and after getting spider mites I am damn good at keeping them under control and/or killing them.

However, I wanted to get more tips on how to PREVENT them from even existing. I know the hygiene factors, everything must be clean, the atmosphere must not be too hot or too humid etc.

But what can I truly use in the reservoir to avoid having any spider mites, gnats, etc to even appear. :/

Thanks for all the help!!!

I spray all the surfaces everyother day with schultz....It comforts me....also I read that a light soap film/residue makes the climat unfavorable for those little critters. But I imagine that dust would stick to it and quikly mess things up.
good luck.

fight the mite!

dont transplant anything from outside unless you fully inspect it. also be careful with plants from other people. if possible, only grow you own from seed and clone. dont involve any other gardens if possible.

mites should never be kept "under control" they quickly develop resistance to whatever pesticide you use. key is to eradicate them. i spray my entire room plants included just before buds start forming, i have never seen them ever since. for gnats, h2o2 1/2 strength in res or gnatrol
