a mix of the following predators will sort the problem out but the damage is already done.You can get food grade OMRI listed citric acid or a premixed product like Nuke Em which is OMRI and approved for use on commercial cannabis. They even list their batch test lab reports if you're concerned about contaminates.
"We will continue to make sure that our ingredient suppliers are held to the highest standards by having each Nuke Em batch laboratory tested before it is bottled. This testing verifies that Nuke Em is free of 59 adverse chemicals and chemical compounds along with yeast, bacteria and mold. To identify which chemicals we test for, simply click here and look at the lab tests. http://www.flyingskull.net/Nuke-Em-Batch-Lab-Reports.html"
You guys can play with bugs all you want. If you want to get rid of those thrips you'll need to spray something that kills them on contact. Unleashing a bunch of ladybugs is not going to achieve as good of results and will not eliminate the thrips.

Imho the risk of mold is massive using and spray at this stage and the plant will still have residue at harvest, predators like above and not lady bugs nonsense
