The initial 'swarm' of rvm's disappeared a couple days later. That starting burst I suspect was in part due to adults coming out of hibernation as well as the plentiful food supply. Hopefully none were done in by the systemic (by eating poisoned prey) I had used a couple weeks prior while the hib was still indoors. I have seen a few rvm's scurrying around on my balcony. Currently, I have not seen any more whiteflies on the hib. Now whether this is from the work of the rvm, the systemic, or being outside where less ideal conditions for the whiteflies exists or all of the above, I cannot say for certain.
