Mite killer ???
Does anyone knows if thiacloprid is effective against spider mites ?
I am asking because all the Miticides suggested earlier on like Tetrasan are not available here in Singapore.
Just found another two phals infected by these little creepy crawlies.......
Would also appreciate if anyone could point me to a online site that offers Tetrasan and 'do' international orders.
Thank you.

I think not.
It is certainly not listed for mites.

Malathion works well if you can get some of that.

I just use insecticidal soap such as Safer's or Trounce. I have also used water with a few drops of dish soap and a little rubbing alcohol with great results.
