To quote a movie "dust off and nuke the site from orbit" :fire:

You're really gonna have to stay on top of them. Hope you're able to salvage something.
I had them once because I made the stupid mistake of bring an outdoor plant in a pot indoors into my room. Thankfully I only had 2 still in veg when the infestation took place. Due to the small size they spread fast. Pretty much bleach sanitized everything, waited a week, bleached again, then restarted.
Moral of this story... NEVER bring anything from outdoors into the grow room, NEVER!

It was about 10 years ago, all I remember it was a red bottle don't remember the name. Just know it didn't work for shit, and I didn't really want to smoke a pesticide anyway.

I just beat down the California russet mite. First things first I hung up Hot Shot No Pests Strips... Then I killed my flower room plants placing them into yard waste can and treated the empty room with very harsh chems. In veg I killed anything greater than 1 foot tall because they are too hard to spray and relocated veg to a temporary tent. I removed lower branches from all remaining veg plants and sprayed the living crap out of them with Mighty Wash. I also watered them with Azatrol. I kept washing them every three days with Mighty Wash and I did that for 9 days. On the last day I hit them with Azatrol in the mister and I watered them again with the Azatrol as well.

I never seen a mite since the first day.. I honestly think if you want to win you can but take off the gloves and fight. And now my plants are 2 foot tall, definitely mite free and I am about ready to flip to 12/12 again with only about a month loss. If I do see mites again I will kill everything and get really nasty ;)

This is true, when the mites are brought in the room on another plant that was part of an infestation in another grow they are very hard to kill , stubborn bastards because they are very adaptable to an indoor environment, miticides, poisons, bleach etc because they have developed immunity . If you bring a mites in on your clothes from brushing against a bush they are easier to eradicate.
Keep plants out of your grow room that didn't start there.

I've had mites twice, once I used soap water like literally dawn dish soap and water, sprayed the leaves, second time I did the same but cooled the room to around 68, and used some fans directly on the plants. Both times they were gone in less than 4-5 days. Some people even use a vacuum cleaner with the hose to suck them off after treating them.
