Holding off an invasion

So recently I noticed spots on several leaves on two of my plants.. White little spots all over. I looked closely and discovered that there are these white/yellowish little larval lookin guys, almost microscopic (cant get a quality picture with any camera I have). There were maybe 15-20 of em on the leaves slowly eating them. Then I noticed more and more. I just ordered some neem oil and I'm gonna use that but it wont be here for a couple days.

In the meantime is there any way to slow them down, until it gets here? The damage they've done has multiplied a lot just in one day and I don't want to lose my whole crop, like 7 weeks in now...

Any ideas? Would spraying the leaves with water once or twice a day be worthwhile?

Thanks,

If your 7 weeks into flower its not recommended to spray because it will attract mould.. the neem oil stops the breeding and stops them eating.

If it is spider mites, I've heard mighty wash is really good and you can use it when close to harvest apparently. Worth a look at. Never used it myself so worth having a browse to see if anyone can back it up. GL

MIghty wash!!! I've seen people drink it lol (not advised) it's charged water won't hurt a thing. Mites drink it and explode can use as much as Needed (daily). Will work
