Grapefruit Tree Bug


Question
I have a grapefruit tree in my home that my children and their grandmother planted about 8 years ago from a seed.  It has a weblike looking thing between some of the leaves and the bugs/mites or whatever they are are very very small and like a yellowish color from what I can tell and I want to know what to do with this tree.  We live in Wisconsin so there is no way it would survive outside.  It stands about 3 feet tall.
Thanks
Beth

Answer
Hi Beth, Use an insecticidal spray like Pure Neem Oil from Dyan Gro, it keeps all kinds of pest at bay.  Does not wash off, is organic and the only thing I use. In the mean time while you are waiting for the Oil spray use soapy dish water and give your tree a bath....  kathy
