Killing spider mites 2-3 weeks from harvest

Green cleaner and flying skull nuke em are both very safe and effective at knocking those little bastards down. Green cleaner is basically safer soap with soy bean oil, citric acid and alcohol. If it touches a mite, it dies. Nuke em is similar, uses citric acid yeast and potassium sorbate. They claim you can even use it on product already harvested. My local shop said the nuke em is a little better for stuff further along in flowering. A few applications over the next week should knock the population down enough to get you through harvest.
This is the winner!

mites will die if you can chill your room in these last weeks.
mites will die when ice cold water hits them, like when dunked into a garbage can of ice water, squirted with
a hose
a plastic bag with the air evaporated and replaced with c02 from a tank and sealed
will suffocate(no 02) in a short time, you'll see them die if clear.
physically removing them with a vacuum before you harvest will reduce the
frequency of spurious pips in your joints.
