Anyone know the difference between amber mite eggs and milky white eggs?

I've been inspecting my leaves as I attempt to eradicate a spider mite infestation in my nursery. I'm winning the battle with application of pesticides every 3 days to inerrupt the larval cycle. However I'm seeing 2 types of eggs. Milky white and slightly translucent to translucent amber / orange eggs. I've heard the milky eggs are about to hatch, but I can find no information on these dam amber eggs. I'm wondering if they're dead from the neem oil that smothered them or if they're new eggs that change to milky white as they develop. If anyone knows I appreciate your help, and I'm also sorry you've had to deal with these little bastards. I swear they're straight from hell man.
