They are quite expensive but I will probably invest in them I think. I hope your squishing is successful!

Did you use it as a soil drench? I think this is what I need to get rid of the grubs. Is is Provado bug killer?

Thanks for that NickR, I will do a search for those mites. Wonder if a certain temperature has to be reached first. Although for the plants in the house that would not be a problem. It's wonderful how they keep discovering predatory mites and other biological controls for pests. It will probably be the norm in the future as more and more harmful chemicals are withdrawn.

Thank you for that Boggy. Short but sweet! Have put that link in my bookmarks and am sure other people will find it interesting. Having recently used Provado vine weevil killer I have emailed them to ask how long I must wait before using the mites.

I am having a real problem with these pests (scarid flies). I tried Provado vine weevil killer but doesn't seem to have worked. Also, they are in my chilli pepper plants, in pots, and it can't be used on edible crops. Does anyone have an idea what I could use? I've tried keeping the pots dry etc. but they are infesting the house!

Thank for that NickR, I have heard watering from the bottom is best. Maybe the only thing to do is as you did, repot the whole lot! I dread the thought - I have dozens of them! I read somewhere that the grubs do eat the roots but I must say I have never noticed any weakening of affected plants. Not like vine weevils, but that's a whole new story!
