Insecticides

From: David Thornton dave at dave-aroid.demon.co.uk> on 2001.05.29 at 02:21:07(6593)
Hello all,
My plants were viciously attacked by red spider mite and mealy bug last
year. I went down to Chelsea last week and a Rentokil rep. told me I
should use an organic insecticide based on rape seed oil for the spider
mite or a v. expensive product called IMIDOCLOPRID - loose or in
Levingtons called ' intercept compost' . I rang around some of my local
garden centres and no one stocked it.
Does anyone know where it is available ? I live in the Manchester area.
Thank you
David
