How do you try and prevent bugs from entering grow space?

In my grow space I surrounded the outside my tent on the floor with flat mouse sticky traps...catches all kinds of spiders ...and mice...I'm in the basement....I also have 6 hanging fly sticky strips to catch all my flying bugs...all this works great!!!

Greetings and salutations GWE! So far i have not had any problems with pests, other than my dog being curious. But here are some pics of my current grow! should be a couple more weeks. Buds are frosting up nice! (250W DWC Sour Diesel and 1024).

Hey there Green!!Thanks for starting the round,a good one too *initiating brain sponge mode

I prevent such bugs from entering with fly strips but i need nothing else as i grow in a tent that is in a room with just a window and a door to another sealed room...Nice humid,cool aired room Later on in April when im done,temps will be 25+ so i will prolly need mite and fungus prevention!!

[Green75]

Look up gnatt nix... put it on the top of your medium bed

Good Morning Green and All.
Sticky yellows in my spaces.

Morning Greenie and crew.

Im in the basement too, I have a couple of sticky traps as well in the corners of the room, they get a bug or spider in them from time to time. I've also added filters to my air intakes on the tents to prevent those damned mites from migrating. Have a great weekend!

Good morning all. I hope all is well with you.

I haven't taken any precautions on critters. My grow room is my bedroom closet and haven't seen anything, but being as paranoid I think I will go get some sticky traps today lol.

Greeting fellow forum friends!

We have no problems with bugs or critters of any sort (knock on wood). We have a bottle of stuff to get rid of mites, but never had to use it. We grow in garage. We did get a cricket in one day when we had garage door up about an inch. Hubs caught it, never made it to tent.

G'Day Green75 and to all our fellow tokers and growers. I have a new tent and so far, no bugs. Everything I have put in it or used near it has been cleaned. I have used fly strips in the past. Only had 1 big plant growing last year, spider mites were having their fun. Considered buying ladybugs when I was at nursery one day, but wasn't exactly sure what to do with 5000 of them, all for $8.99.

The best defense is a really good offense !

Love it!!!!!
Remember gun control means using both hands!

[Royal Nugs]

Wow, primo... you take your prevention measures to a whole new level!

Chit man! Poor little (stuffed) critter will be blown to smithereens. THAT can't be good for your bud.

Good evening everyone, just got to this thread. Glad to see you're all got your critters under control. Yellow sticky traps are my friends. Not much else to bother me in my bedroom. 😊

[rwdyredhead]

Ain't anybody concerned about that big ass spider???

[insomniaczzz]

Nah, just concerned with explaining the bullet hole in the wall to the landlord.
