If they have webbed and you can see them moveing around you are fighting a loseing battle do not care what any one says the only way is finish the grow off then bleach the room with a spray of bleach neat continue this for a week every day and then leave the fans on to dry the room out clean of with soapy water then start a fresh.

for future ref be careful with anything that you are buying clone wise because sometimes it can cost you big time,if there are only a few spider mites then introduce lady birds /ladybugs fight nature with nature nothing works tried everthing from neat vodka neem oil soapy water with lemon juice and lady birds may take a few out if there are only a few

Lady bugs are not effective against mites.
Predator mites are.

End all, mite nuker? FORBID 4 F - No Avid or Flora mite! Best to use before week 3 in bloom....Perfect for veg.

After your bleach sanitize (you only need to do that once). Drop a Dr. Doom bug bomb in the area. The flea & tick one's for house use, are the same thing. THEN, mix a quite weak solution of pyrethrin. Spray that on every crack and around doors and windows. At real low dose's. Pyrethrins act as a strong repellent to mites. Works very well.

I have had this problem for the past 2 and a half weeks. My crop is in final 4 weeks...
I am growing indoor, in a tent, organic
I been going to the hydro store and buying mighty wash and liquid lady bug and been spraying every 3 days as soon as the lights come off, and yes I get under the leaves of each plant, and stem and top of leaves....


But for some reason I just cannot get rid of them. I put a leaf under the microscope yesterday after having sprayed them down the previous night and saw a spider mite run by.....


Please can someone help me, what do you guys do when you get spidermites?

Hi all,

I battled these suckers for a month, tried everything but kept coming back, what worked for me is high concentration of dish soap sprayed all over plant, including the soil:)
