DE is diatomaceous earth. You also need to use the food grade quality DE. I also use the 10% Permethrin at stronger than the label recommends for both spider mites and stink bugs because they are so hard to kill. Make sure you get the livestock and vegetable grade Permethrin and not the one used for termites. I would not mind using the natural pyretrin but the cost is ridiculous now that so many people have gone organic. When I was young it was very cheap but now it is like buying gold.
