Spider invasion on my plants

[camille1585]

I have a problem tha is going from bad to worse. Little tiny spiders have made webs on every single one of my orchids. It's not a problem for the plants, but all the blooms are covered in ugly cobwebs. I've been regularily cleaning the webs off each plant and every individual bloom, and trying to kill as many of the beasties as I can. The problem is that no matter how many I kill, they are back the next day, and it seems to be getting worse and worse.
I've been hesitating to spray anything on the plants because I don't want to ruin the blooms.
Any suggestions?

Camille, is the weather warm enough in your area of France right now for you to put the plants outdoors? Shortly after hatching, Spiderlings become cannibalistic and will attempt to put some distance between themselves and their neighbors (siblings) if given the chance. They should hopefully disperse once they're outside. And they'll help keep down the insect population in your garden. So try to be indulgent and not kill too many of them.

It's no where near warm enough to put them outside! Temps are hovering above freezing this week, with snow in the forecast. The ealiest I can put anything outside is mid may. Too bad

To bad you are not closer I would let them scatter in the greenhouse I have a couple of large webs in a corner they really do a number on any stray fungus knats . Gin

Spiders are actually god to have because they eat bugs that eat plants but are you sure they are not "spider Mites?
