The main reason why they are considered pests is because of their honeydew excretion that permits the growth of black sooty mold fungus. This particular mold conflicts with the growth process and slowly kills the targeted plant. Moreover, whiteflies selfishly consume most of the plants’ nutrients which further hinders the plants growth process.

Q. I believe I have two types of white flys infesting the inside of my house. One is the kind that has parallel white wings, and the other looks like lint floating around. Some look like glitter on the floor. They seem to group on the accoustical ceiling and drop down egs and nymphs that bite. I have been vacuming the floors and ceilings like crazy, it helps some, but then the next day they are back. They also seem to attract some spidersl. What Can I use on them?
A. We would recommend Cy-Kick CS. This product is a liquid concentrated insecticide which will need to be diluted with water before application. We would also recommend inspecting around the house for any moisture problems and thoroughly spray the pesticide both indoors where the infestation is present and outdoors around the perimeter of the home.

I am a DIY supporter. I don't employ exterminators to take care of my pest problems. I would like to o it myself. So, when my cricket problem got out of control I decided to do something. As per a friend's recommendation I bought 1 pint of Talstar Pro for 28.40. It is a great pesticide. The pests died after I used it on them. It worked really great and the residual effect stays up to 3 months. I can recommend it to anyone.
