I love spider mites!

Seriously these little bastards show up out of thin air! Curious of your thoughts on the following situation:

I went to gather 8 clones for a donation and of course I thoroughly inspect each one before sending them out. Well of the 8 clones, two of them had a spider mite each. I canceled the donation so I could do a thorough spray and keep an eye on them before I call them clear (Of course the entire grow will get sprayed). I just recently moved the grow for larger space 2 weeks ago, so it could have come from the move.

Do any of you experience this? If so, how would you have handled it?

RIU - We need a spider mite icon with a heart surrounding the littler F***er

Thank you!

Honestly man I have always got them from soil, other have gotten them from other bredders clones, here were I live they love to hang out in the juniper and spruce trees and run inside the warm when old man winter comes, that's the only explination I have for the little f***ers.

I've seen good results with neem oil. 3 applications, 1 every 4 days. Works good in early stages not for bud mode. They are little f*ers... they can come from dust also. A big reason for a sterile environment.
