AAARRRRGH!!! I have spider mites

[imgliniel]

ok, so it started with a miniature rose I have in my living room, I saw mites on it, and I have been trying treatments (alcohol with dish soap, systemic insecticide, but having trouble iradicating). Now today I realize they are in several phal pots and a dendrobium in the same room! And the orchids are like, 20 to 30 feet from the rose! I should have taken the damn thing outside or thrown it away when I saw them.


*sigh* anyone know any good cures or good ways to kill the little buggers? I have a perethrin and canola oil miticide that I just got for the rose, is it safe for the orchids too? It says safe for all houseplants. Anyone had to deal with these before?

I was already having some mold problems with these particular phals and now this.
