Pyrethrum TR will eliminate pretty much any bug in 3 days.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pyrethrum-TR-2oz-Whitmire-BASF-Total-Release-Fogger-Insecticide-2-pack/141815575210?_trksid=p999999.c100623.m-1&_trkparms=aid=222007&algo=SIC.MBE&ao=1&asc=20160323102634&meid=a298116e659643c3a5d3190b998a5103&pid=100623&rk=2&rkt=6&sd=381453085812

In a nutshell this is what you need to do to use it:

-Turn off lights,exhaust fans,circulating fans,pumps etc.
-Release fogger in room (not too close to plants) approx 2 feet off the ground
-Wait 2 hrs after fogger was released & enter room and turn everything back on

-3 days later, repeat the first 3 steps again and your room will be bug/larvae free.

Ever looked at half of those forums? I believe most of them confuse the newbie. No real answers in growing cannabis but peoples real experiences and their opinions. I have read tons of the "Threads" on here and they lead to no where but what people believe works in their situation. Yes there is a foundation to growing but it has so many differences.

So I'm a "dick" by not puttting my information about a question asked? You just joined RIU In April and start name calling... Here is a good example of why I don't give information - So far there are 4 kindly people telling to use neem oil, Mighty Wash, Pyrethrum TR, and kelp. Four different methods - Which method works the best? There a another 20 or so ways to combat spider mites. Spider mites are one of the hardest things to deal with when growing herb - I had them for 9 FUCKING MONTHS three years ago!

Another reason I don't like giving out information all the time is there are opinions opposit to mine which starts bullshit when another has a different opinion.

For what it's worth I finally used No Spider Mite THREE times in a row instead of the recommended TWO times going by the instructions - very hard on the plants but finally killed them off.

Everyone have a great growing day... Nothing spoiling my day - 40 days to harvest!

Dont believe my comment was directly pointed towards you or anyone else for that matter. Just anyone that knows they are being one. Im sure your experience with bugs was hell but all I was saying is that when new growers look up answers to their questions it can be confusing because one thread leads to another ect ect... and still leave confused. Point well made about different experiences for different growers and the out comes. Oh and who really cares about the date "when someone joins" this forum. Does that "date make the person less important than the so called "veterans" on this site? Just because a person has been on here along time does not mean that they are a professional grower.

Do not use a nicotine wash too near your Lady's
it's better to ASK and feel a FOOL,
than be a FOOL and not ask.

it takes the same typing time to tell some one to look through the threads as it does to type Blowtorch or Neem
:weed:
isn't that what freedom of typeing's all about ?

This is one of the more contested questions on RIU, how to kill mites........There are literally 100's of threads, with tens of thousands of answers.

There is no clear, simple answer. What works for one person won't work for others. For each product 100 people like, 100 people hate.

But I do know this:

1. The effectiveness of most things depends on how well and thorough you spray the room, plants, walls and floor, etc.

2. Spray just before the lights go out and leave them off until everything dries well. This will minimize leaf damage.

3. Water your plants well at least a few hours before spraying. This will minimize what is absorbed by the leaf and stop leaf damage also.

4. It's usually best to rotate items used since mites will build up a resistance to some products. But not everything so read product description thoroughly.

5. It's always best to kill mites while the plants are still in their veg period, as many products will kill off or retard bud growth if in flowering.

With all that being said, I spray Forbid 4F (1.2ml/gallon) the first week in flowering. The effectiveness lasts about 45 days and the spray kills eggs, adults, etc. I've tried most things on the market and personally, this works best FOR ME!!!!!

People make it hard. 10ml kelp per gallon. Dip them as clone (most effective) spray them ( they hang out under the leaves mainly) it's cheap, super effective, 100% natural

I've gone to a friends place who had bomb genetics but was breeding mites. After I cut from his mite infested plants I would collect the cuts in a cup, dip the entire cup of cuts @ 1 time and swish them around. After they rooted did the same(entire cube and clone) and sprayed 3 days later. He had red mites, black mites, mites w 2 spots clear mites. All dead mites
