If pests have not allowed you to live in peace during the season, treatment should be carried out in the greenhouse as well.

You shouldn't be afraid of the word "processing", implying the use of aggressive chemicals. Modern summer residents always have something to choose from.

In such cases, experienced gardeners advise paying attention to a preparation called “Green Soap”.

It will effectively cope with the invasion of spider mites, both on fruit crops and when treating a greenhouse.

Unlike chemical additives and the same sulfur checkers, this treatment is considered safe and does not take much time and effort.

How to proceed

You will need a couple of caps of the product per bucket of water. All that remains is to wash the walls of the greenhouse from the inside and there is no need to wash off the remains.

Particular care should be taken to treat hard-to-reach areas where pests may hide.

How does the product work?

When the product gets onto the surface of plants or buildings, it covers them with a thin film.

Insect pests trapped under this film die from lack of oxygen.

The only drawback of this product is its instability to precipitation and decreased effectiveness after drying.

Therefore, if necessary, the procedure will have to be repeated.
