Commercial Clover Mite Control

Clover mites are a dark reddish-brown pest and smaller than a pinhead. They don’t pose a threat to human health or cause major damage to businesses, but they can be a severe nuisance when it invades structures. Clover mites differ from many pests in that they prefer cooler weather. Clover mite activity increases as temperatures start to drop, during which time they pay homage to their name by feasting on clovers, over-fertilized grass, and many other plants. In fact, clover mites eat more than 200 different plant species, including some flowers. Their activity peaks in the cooler, early spring months when they can become the greatest nuisance.
