However, I saw a few of those in a terrarium, so tried an experiment using a spray made up of 1% cinnamon leaf oil dissolved in isopropyl rubbing alcohol. One brief spray, and in 10 minutes they fell off of the plants and glass, with no effect on the plants.

I haven't seen them since.

I used pure Ceylon cinnamon leaf oil I purchase for resale from Cinnamonvogue.com. If you want to try that we both have the same retail price, so you can decide on shipping cost (I use a USPS Flat rate box.)

Ray, do you sell on your website this oil you mentioned or the spray made from the oil and alcohol? What measurements you use please? I will get the oil, but I would love to know how much exactly to use of oil and alcohol if I need to ever use it on my miniatures. Many thanks
