Spider mites are slow moving, normally light in colour with distinct dark spots on either side of their body. They feed on many soft or fleshy leaved plants, causing speckling and discolouration.

At high densities they produce silk that can cover the plant. Mites will overwinter in conservatories, greenhouses or bamboo canes. If damage occurred last year, introduce the predators early. 

The tiny red coloured spider mites are plant-feeding mites and feared pests on several crops all over the world. In dry, warm weather a spider mite population can grow very rapidly.

Species

The most common species are two spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae) and the carmine spider mite (Tetranychus cinnabarinus).

Spider Mite control with Phytoseiulus 

Where RSM is already established, use Phytoseiulus, a fast-moving predatory mite. Temperature needs to be consistently over 20°C. Repeat applications every 2-3 weeks in hot weather.

Regular introductions between June and August for effective control.

Available to order between: 1st May - 1st October

Description and life cycle

The female deposits round eggs of about 0.14 mm on the underside of the leaf. Out of the egg a colourless larva with 6 legs hatches and immediately starts feeding. Subsequently, the larva develops into a protonymph, a deutonymph and an adult stage.

The nymphs are light to dark green and have 2 clearly developed body spots. The colour of the adults can vary from yellow-brown to red-brown, depending of the crop on which they occur.

Both males and females have 2 large dark body spots. The development stages are separated by a resting stage, during which the mite settles immobile on the leaf.

Once the mite has become adult, it takes another 0.5 to 3 days before the female starts laying eggs.

The total development time takes 7 days at 30°C (86°F), 17 days at 20°C (68°F) and 36 days at 15°C (59°F). The female lays her eggs for 10 days (at 35°C or 95°F) and up to 40 days (at 15°C or 59°F). At 20°C (68°F) she lays about 40 eggs in total, but under optimal circumstances this can mount up to 100.

Especially during dry and warm weather spider mites can reproduce very rapidly. In autumn, when temperature and photoperiod drop, fertilised females enter diapauses. Such females turn orange-red. They hide in all kinds of cracks in the greenhouse, to appear again early in the following season when circumstances improve.

Awesome product... however...
This stuff is great, it's enough coverage to just throw it on and go. It's so light, and definitely reduces oil, I've only had it for 2 days so I can't say whether or not it makes my skin breakout. But typically la Roche products are awesome on my sensitive combo skin The only drawback to this product is the fair tone, is suuuppper light. I am blonde haired light skin, green eyed, sorta freckley person. I burn and then tan sorta well but never dark. And the fair/light color ghosts me out quite a bit. But I'm afraid the darker color will be too yellow. I just bought the darker tone. I'll probably mix them. Contouring the fair tone helps the wash out, but for me, that's not the point of a BB. I just want minimal coverage so I can quickly put it on and not worry about anything. I think I like the color of the tinted mineral sunscreen better. We'll see about the other tone. Maybe the fair tone will work better for me in the winter. Over all it's great but I spent $60 on BB cream which is a little outrageous.

An excellent makeup staple to have in your collection
This is a rich, smooth, creamy SPF foundation that doesn't leave harsh lines on your face from not blending enough. It really blends in with your complexion. This product is also lovely because it has SPF in it, so you are providing sun protection to your face. A little bit goes a long way with this product, so it should last several months of normal use. An excellent makeup staple to have in your collection; one that not only protects your skin but that looks natural and soft.

if you’re a skeptic read this!
I am such a skeptic about this sort of stuff. I’ve used many different bb creams, concealers, and foundations that have fallen short of the mark and I was very very wary of purchasing this. Sometimes people overhype things and I end up spending money on things that don’t even work!! Long story short, I am 100% sold on it. As someone who has struggled with painful hormonal acne for several years now I am always scared of putting anything on my face, but this has not caused any break outs or dried me out any more than I already am from my acne topical cream. It blurs out all imperfections - and acne scars - and looks just like your skin. I can’t believe how well it works. I’ll never not purchase this as it’s now become essential for whenever I am wearing make up!! So yes, believe all the reviews because it’s the truth!!

This is not for fair / light skin
Honestly, my skin is not even that fair; it's more fair/light. This product is way too dark. I guess I will list the pros as well. It smells nice, the texture is nice, and it has good coverage. But I just can't wear it because it makes my face 3 shades darker.

Only product that doesn't settle into my pores!
I have so many liquid and powder foundations, you name it I've tried it! They all settle into the pores on my nose to the point where sometimes I almost feel it looks better without makeup. I'm not usually a bb cream person because I have quite oily skin, but this stuff is magic. It is very similar to a silicone based primer, but works better. It has surprisingly good coverage, I just add another layer to problem areas, and spot conceal if needed. However, this doesn't have the best staying power, but none of my foundations ever stay on anyway! So I set it with powder, either loose or even a light layer of a powder foundation and it looks very nice. Also sometimes if I want to wear a different foundation I'll use this just on my nose area sort of like a primer. I am 28 with oily skin, minor breakouts, and an nc20 with a lot of redness, which this evens out, for reference.
