I've noticed by large garden of rose bushes is being infested with some king of pest (not sure which one; some kind of bug). Can anyone recommend a good pesticide for rose bushes ?

Red Spider Mite is a common pest of roses and any gardening center worth its salt will have a pesticide.

To detect RSM one can sometimes hold a sheet of typing paper below a leaf and thump the leaf causing the mite to appear on the paper.

Red Spider Mites sounds like it could be the problem with my rose bushes. I'll check with my Garden Center and see if they have a good pesticide for RSM. Thanks for your advice.
