What’s up Dude, Scotty, Guru and the DGC?
About a month ago I had to chop my 3 plants down due to having root aphids. Now I want to get my tent cleaned up and ready for another grow. I already got rid of all the pot’s and soil. How do I sterilize the room to give me the best chance of having a successful harvest next time around? I was thinking about spraying a bleach and water mix, if so, what ratio of bleach to water do I use? Any input is much appreciated!
Check out a product called Pro-Kure or similar chlorine dioxide products. Chlorine dioxide is safe if you stay out while it’s being treated then you fully evacuate the room before re entry. I believe it is highly oxidative and will kill everything in your room including pm plus eggs and bugs.

You want 100% guarantee. Well there is none. (Go the bottom) However, let’s get you the best option.
I don’t know how bad your infestation was or if those sticky eggs are all over your house. Well those little eggs can stay dormant for months even a year. So you’ll need to treat with an insect growth regulator. Probably in a gas or bomb. Real kill fogger or something for fleas.
So clean everything up. The bleach thing is cool and wash everything to physical remove pest. You can remove your grow equipment if that makes you feel better and bomb the place.
Immediately setup your grow you want the fuckers to come out (hatch). The Igr will work. Soil drench with pyrethrum.
Or the easy way
The secret – for root infestation is imidacloprid as a drench. This will cure an active root infestation.
