To deal with pests in the greenhouses we are trying ladybugs. We did find out that the adult whiteflies the ladybugs can't catch. We also found out that ladybugs are more for minor infestations of pests then really bad ones. The tomato plant was finally removed from the old greenhouse and most of the other plants where taken out of that greenhouse as well. We found the best way to deal with the whiteflies is with a shop vac. The infestation was too out of control for the ladybugs to deal with on their own but we tried. I did see a reduction in pests but the ladybugs needed help to deal with everything. I think having the doors open on the greenhouses because it was so hot out left a lot of the ladybugs escape too. You do want to make sure that you keep moisture around for the ladybugs.
