And once you have mites neem oil will not get rid of them period. Neem oil and products like it work as preventive measures and thats about it.

I'll second the vote on Hot Shot no pest strips, they are a lifesaver in my grow room. If you have a bad infestation try placing a hot shot no pest strip next to your plant and cover plant and strip with a large garbage bag for a day. Kills em all dead. ( May have to repeat in a week due to the eggs.) Cleanliness in your grow room is critical, and regular once a week treatments for mites is a must ( use one of the several mentioned in the above posts).

See the thing is without proper coverage which can be difficult to achieve no spray will totally work. Pest strips put off a gas which is impossible to escape if used in a enclosed space.

I use mine in an enclosed growbox. They'd work in a closet.

I usually only use them if I get some clones from an unknown source or if I see mites. I use them for around a week (long enough to kill live ones and the eggs) and then put them back into a plastic bag, until I need them again.

I also use them between grows. More of a preventative measure. :joint::peace:

I don't have mites bongsmilie
