Right now Im pulling outside air into my room through a 4in inline fan. I have a cheap filter on it and dont trust that it will stop mites. What filter would you everyone recommend putting on it to stop dust and mite particles. Can I just put a carbon filter on the exhaust side (inside of the room) or do I need some other type of filter

I just stretched some pantyhose over my intake. Do you guys think spider mites are able to crawl through pantyhose?
